It does not work on Windows:

>>> subprocess.Popen("c:/windows/notepad.exe", cwd=b'c:/temp')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "D:\afa\python\py3k-1\lib\subprocess.py", line 681, in __init__
    restore_signals, start_new_session)
  File "D:\afa\python\py3k-1\lib\subprocess.py", line 892, in _execute_child
    startupinfo)
TypeError: must be string or None, not bytes

The function sp_CreateProcess() in PC/_subprocess.c should probably be fixed.
And please add unit tests...
