New submission from Jarno Rajala:

The Windows 64-bit embeddable Python 3.5.2 (also 3.5.1), downloadable from
https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.5.2/python-3.5.2-embed-amd64.zip, does not 
set sys.path according to PYTHONPATH.

To reproduce this bug, run these commands from the directory with the 
embeddable package:
set PYTHONPATH=dummy
python
import sys;sys.path

If this is deliberate behaviour, the help message (python --help) should say 
that PYTHONPATH doesn't apply, instead it has the usual message. Also, there 
should be an alternate way of setting additional sys.path directories, e.g. 
with an additional command-line option. Currently, there's no way to change 
sys.path, except from Python itself.
