method: path.local.sysfind

 return a path object found by looking at the systems
            underlying PATH specification. If the checker is not None
            it will be invoked to filter matching paths.  If a binary
            cannot be found, py.error.ENOENT is raised.
            Note: This is probably not working on plain win32 systems
            but may work on cygwin.
