Summary: test_commands test fails under Cygwin

Initial Comment:
The Python 2.2.1 test_commands regression test
fails under Cygwin 1.3.10 because the regular
expression is pickier now and because Cygwin can
have spaces in user and/or group names. See the
following for some more details:

http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-04/msg00774.html

and a workaround.

I'm submitting this as a bug report instead of a
patch because I don't know the best way to fix
this issue.  Can test_commands use numeric IDs
instead of names?  Should I discuss this issue
on python-dev instead of here?

BTW, please add a "Test" category to the
available choices for Bugs.
