[issue12407] test_subinterps fails on Windows

[Cesare Di Mauro]

New submission from Cesare Di Mauro <cesare.di.mauro at gmail.com>:

This test fails on Windows because it tries to change the working folder to an empty string.
Anyway, even changing:
    os.chdir(basepath)
with:
    os.chdir(basepath or '.')
it fails because the subprocess tries to execute an ELF file ('Modules/_testembed') which Windows isn't able to handle.
