I've checked the source code for 3.4; `subprocess` uses `_winapi.CreateProcess` 
on Windows [1] that in turn uses `CreateProcessW` [2]. CreateProcessA is not 
used.

`Popen` should already support Unicode on Windows though I don't see explicit 
tests for non-ascii arguments or arguments that can't be encoded using `mbcs` 
character encoding.
