Bug #1008275 refers to attempting to run commands.getstatusoutput() on win32, and the fact that it breaks.
Hm... That module's functionality is such a small improvement over raw os.popen, it would never have been admitted into the standard library these days. I'd rather see this added as a higher-level API to one of the process management modules that are floating around, one of which will eventually land in the library, at which point we can deprecate commands.py. --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
OK - I'll add something along these lines to the bug report.
