New submission from Stefan Schukat:
If os.spawnv or os.spawnve is called with an empty second argument the process
terminates in release builds under Windows. This is simple to reproduce:
>>> import os
>>> nPath = os.path.join(os.environ["windir"], "notepad.exe")
>>> os.spawnv(os.P_NOWAIT, nPath, []) # or os.spawnv(os.P_NOWAIT, nPath, [], {})
This has the same cause as the bug reported for execv
http://bugs.python.org/issue1039 and could be fixed in the same way.
