Summary: os.execvp fails with empty argument list

Initial Comment:
This code fails with python 2.1 (it's ok with 1.5):
python -c 'import os;  os.execvp("ls",[])'



Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in ?
  File "/Tools/Python-2.1/lib/python2.1/os.py", line
291, in execvp
    _execvpe(file, args)
  File "/Tools/Python-2.1/lib/python2.1/os.py", line
341, in _execvpe
    apply(func, (fullname,) + argrest)
ValueError: execv() arg 2 must not be empty
