I remain -1 on any proposal that uses subprocesses. It absolutely must be the launcher that is running Python. In fact, I'd call it "python.exe". Because of this issue, it may turn out infeasible to actually implement the PEP. If Mark takes a stance in this issue, I'd request that the opposite position is appropriately reflected (and rebutted) in the PEP.
