Calling nt.execv works with a unicode string because it creates a bytes path
via PyUnicode_FSConverter. OTOH, nt.execve uses path_converter, which doesn't
convert unicode to bytes on Windows. Thus in posixmodule.c, for the call
execve(path->narrow, argvlist, envlist), path->narrow is NULL, and the CRT
kills the process due to a bad argument:

Using a bytes path with nt.execve will work, but it's deprecated on Windows:

__main__:1: DeprecationWarning: The Windows bytes API has been
deprecated, use Unicode filenames instead
C:\>Python 3.5.0a1
Since bytes paths are deprecated on Windows, these calls should be using wexecv
and wexecve.
