[issue1759845] subprocess.call fails with unicode strings in command line

Although this issue is very old, in case anyone else like us need this functionality I created a package that implements the proposed C-fix.
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/subprocessww
Simply "import subprocessww" and POpen is patched. We tested it and it does the job pretty well, haven't run into special situations yet.

We really want to upgrade our app to Python 3, but currently lack the manpower to go over our app line by line. It's not a simple 2to3 conversion, unfortunately.
