It is not enough to just replace CreateProcess with CreateProcessW. You will need to change also other related calls and resolve issues when you pass some arguments as 8-bit strings and other arguments as Unicode strings. You will need to backport a half of Python 3. At end, this will break someones code.

The correct way to solve this issue -- upgrade to Python 3, where these issues were solved more smoothly and contsistently.
