Summary: Docs for os, popen2 omit list argument to popen2() et al

Initial Comment:
http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/os-newstreams.html
and
http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-popen2.html
do not give any indication that you can use a list for
cmd instead of a string and os.execvp() will be used
instead of setting up a subshell.
