[issue39401] Unsafe dll loading in getpathp.c on Win7

[Steve Dower]

Agreed, we can just search System32 for this. Thanks for doing the patch!

For future reference, and for anyone else reading this, we generally prefer unavoidable DLL hijacking bugs to come to the Python Security Response Team first (security at python.org).
