As Python 3.3 declare:
Windows 2000 and Windows platforms which set COMSPEC to command.com are no longer supported due to maintenance burden.

We need to drop corresponding code from subprocess.

Brian, please don't forget to cleanup subprocess code when you will be ready to.

Brian, is the patch ok?

Hm, I thought I already responded to this one. PEP 11 states that the w9xpopen code shouldn't be removed until 3.4. I have a patch on another computer that adds a deprecation for 3.3 - I'll add it here within the day.

For 3.4 we would actually remove the w9xpopen project from the VS solution and make sure it's no longer a part of the project.
