Just to note, PowerShell must be updated *manually* (at least on Win7).  Plus 
you need to know what to update to get it. In this case, the Windows Management

I've installed this on my buildbot apparently concurrently with this

building a new Python. (Although the latest merge kinda makes this a mute 
point).
