Comment (by dustin):

 * Anything in the 'buildslave' package is slave-side only, so yes, it
 executes in the context of the slave.
  * os.system is OK in this case.  If we can get that working, we can look
 at using spawnProcess instead, so that the Twisted reactor can keep
 executing - but that's not critical in this case.
  * I think that designing a test for this behavior will be harder than
 writing the correct behavior, since we don't know much about processes on
 Windows.  So the testing should be done with a test buildmaster and a
 Windows slave, and a step that uses cmd.exe.
