[New-bugs-announce] [issue19015] Too long command returns 32512

[Sworddragon]

New submission from Sworddragon:

If a command gets too long os.system() will return 32512. As I have figured out from Google this normally happens if the command can't be found. In the attachments is an example command which will fail on os.system() (it was generated as test during development - it is nearly 600.000 characters long). Executing the file with bash works fine but using os.system() makes troubles.
