There are some issues wrt Windows support. Currently, popen5 does not 
support Windows at all. To be able to do so, we must chose between:

1) Rely on Mark Hammonds Win32 extensions. This makes it possible to keep
popen5 as a pure Python module. The drawback is that Windows support won't
be available unless the user installs win32all. Does anyone think there's
a problem with adding a module to the Python standard library that uses
win32all?

or 

2) Write supporting code in C (basically, copy the required process 
handling functions from win32all).
