We should either move or copy the "Replacing Older
Functions with the subprocess Module" section to the
documentation of the functions that are replaced by
subprocess.

See
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2004-December/050266.html,
for non-subprocess specific rationale.

If anyone else wants to work on this bug, that's fine with
me. Currenly, I'm not in "documentation mood".

The best is to leave that section where it is, because it'll remain
there in the Py3 docs, but to point to this section from the other places.

So, in the deprecated functions I added an alert to review specially a
section of the subprocess documentation that helps with the replacing of
those functions.
