Details

This issue is related to spaces in the commandline string and the fact that we are expecting two arguments (app, args) vs a single commandline argument.

I found this while doing xpcshell tests on windows mobile where we set constants on the command line like this:
xpcshell -e 'const _HEAD_FILES = ["<path>/head.js", "<path>/head2.js"];'


in order to get this to work, I need to do this:
xpcshell -e 'var[_HEAD_FILES]=[["<path>/head.js","<path>/head2.js"]];'

I suspect the problem is in subprocess.py for the popen handler when it handles 1 commandline vs app/args.  We might be able to do more logical parsing of the command line to split these, or rework the createprocess to just one a single command line.

this fixes the problem for all my test cases, if you have any other trouble reopen this bug.

I have the latest python25.zip and it is missing the pipelib.dll and pipedev.dll.  Are these integrated in to another .dll?
It's staticly linked into python25.dll now
