Thanks, Glyph. In that case maybe the Python subprocess docs need not
single out SystemRoot, but instead plaster a big warning around the

I agree
I tripped over this one trying to make one of our Python at work
Windows compatible. We had no idea that a magic 'SystemRoot'
environment variable would be required, and it was causing issues for
pyzmq.
It might be nice to reflect the findings of this email thread on the
subprocess documentation
