your code doesn't compile:
spam.c(5) : error C2082: redefinition of formal parameter 'self'
spam.c(6) : error C2082: redefinition of formal parameter 'args'
spam.c(10) : warning C4047: 'function' : 'struct _object *' differs in levels
of in
direction from 'int '
spam.c(10) : warning C4024: 'PyArg_ParseTuple' : different types for formal and
actual parameter 1
spam.c(18) : warning C4113: 'struct _object *(__cdecl *)()' differs in parameter
lists from 'struct _object *(__cdecl *)(struct _object *,struct _object *)'
if I fix the argument stuff so that the code matches the example in
the extending/embedding manual, the spam.system() call works just
fine over here.

umm.
what made you think it was a good idea to put a main() function in
an extension ? the interpreter (or embedding application) already has
one, so you don't need to add another one...

weird as in
unresolved external symbol _Py_SetProgName
? (it's Py_SetProgramName, not Py_SetProgName).

did you look for warnings from your compiler ?
