[issue1524] os.system() fails for commands with multiple quoted file names

Yes, I tried running the exact same command line in a Windows shell and 
it worked fine. Note that the buggy.py script echoes the command line 
and then immediately calls os.system with it. E.g.:

   print "strCmdLine=[%s]" % strCmdLine
   nRtn = os.system(strCmdLine)

I tried running the script in a shell window, watched it fail, then 
immediately cut and pasted the command line that had been echoed out by 
the script to the command line prompt in the same shell, ran it and it 
succeeded.
