Same with python3...

brings up IDLE on Windows. 2.7 and 3.2 do not work as above but require
'idlelib.idle' instead of just 'idlelib'.
C:\Programs>python32\python.exe -m idlelib.idle
C:\Programs>python27\python.exe -m idlelib.idle
I have no idea if the change is to '-m' processing or to idlelib. If the
latter, it is an example of a patch that might have been harmlessly
backported with PEP434 accepted.
