Initial Comment:
I'm using Enthought Python 2.3.5 together with IPython 
and matplotlib on Windows XP SP2. I had problems 
importing pylab (in order actually to use matplotlib) 
until I changed the attached file (see from line 365). 

I have absolutely no idea what effect this will have 
on other modules (I'm fairly new to programming), but 
matplotlib seems to work okay now. Ignorance is 
bliss...

Thanks for the patch. I'm not quite sure what you have been
doing: Python 2.3.5 did not include the subprocess module at
all. So if you got it either from IPython or from Enthought
Python, you could report the problem to them. They should
either include _subprocess.pyd (as it was released with
Python 2.4), or enable the if 0 block, meant for pywin32, or
drop subprocess entirely.

In any case, this should be a problem for Python 2.4 or (the
upcoming) Python 2.5. Closing it as a third-party bug.
