Log Message:
Implement os.waitpid() for Windows, in a way that's compatible with Linux
where their capabilities intersect. Would be nice if people using non-
MSVC compilers (Borland etc) took a whack at doing something similar for
them (this code relies on the MS _cwait function).

 Windows
 
+ - os.waitpid() is now implemented for Windows, and can be used to block
+ until a specified process exits. This is similar to, but not exactly
+ the same as, os.waitpid() on POSIX systems. If you're waiting for
+ a specific process whose pid was obtained from one of the spawn()
+ functions, the same Python os.waitpid() code works across platforms.
+ See the docs for details.
+ 
 - New tempfile.TemporaryFile implementation for Windows: this doesn't
 need a TemproraryFileWrapper wrapper anymore, and should be immune
