Summary: on win32 getpass runs into unix_getpass

Initial Comment:
In python 2.2.2 the getpass module from line 105:

try:
    import termios
except ImportError:
    bla-bla

else:
    getpass = unix_getpass

but import termios doesn't fires ImportError, so
getpass will be unix_gatpass, and later it fails
on AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute
'tcgetattr'

Why termios.py exist in the win32 packages ?
