Add new constants usable with os.popen() on Windows.
NOTE: this seems a mess wrt which symbols are available on which platforms. I can't fix it, but I didn't add to it <wink>, and included an XXX comment about names claimed to be available on Windows that aren't. If anyone can figure out the whole ugly truth, I'm sure a better organization will suggest itself.
