Summary: deadlock when too much stderr output

Initial Comment:
labrun and labmex both use popen2 and wait to capture
the output from stderr produced by a command.  This
unfortunately causes a deadlock when too much output
is written to stderr (possibly a bug in Python?).  A
solution for labmex was to direct the stderr output 
to a file.  Could possibly also work for labrun.

We now use tmpfiles and a nice class in labutils.
