stty --version check fails with Busybox

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The test for stty is not working if we use Busybox. That one doesn't have a 
--version parameter. The solution is to check if the program is available 
without directly calling it. The following patch is working for me:

<pre>
--- php_serial.class.php.orig
+++ php_serial.class.php

        {
            $this->_os = "linux";

-           if($this->_exec("stty --version") === 0)
+           if($this->_exec("which stty", $output) === 0)
            {
                register_shutdown_function(array($this, "deviceClose"));
            }
</pre>

Forget the $output. That was used in my debugging :). The correct patch is as 
follow:
