[issue1772] popen fails when there are two or more pathnames/parameters with spaces

[Stephan Hoermann]

Stephan Hoermann added the comment:

I have attached some code that demonstrates the bug. You need to run it 
on Windows and you need to place some bat file (it doesn't need to do 
anything just exist) at C:\Program Files\test.bat (or change the 
reference in the code, but it does need to include spacing). The first 
popen call works the second popen call will fail, because there are 2 
pathnames in the code with spaces. I am using the popen4 module in os 
but I also tested popen2 and popen3 and they do the same thing.
