the suggestion to add the optional second parameter fixed the problem,

FWIW, although it's not obvious, the args parameter to spawnl
is intended to become the sys.args (in Python terms) of the
newly-spawned process. Which is why the first element is expected
to be the name of the process. It took me some time to realise
this myself :)
Anyway, glad we could be of help.
Can we make this fix automatic for Win7 to fix #8036?
