Hi all, I've replaced the command spawning code on Windows as there were serious issues with it (see below). I've been using my replacement build for a month and haven't found any problems.

This mainly affects build commands on Windows. If you use Windows, please test it.

Log Message: ----------- Fix spawning [synchronous] commands on Windows

Build command spawning failed sometimes when there were several pages of errors. In these cases the process would block for 30s and then abort. (Some hangs were also experienced).

This fix does cause a console window to be shown for the duration of the spawned process. This seems acceptable compared with the old broken behaviour, and can be useful to abort the build command by closing the console window.

Note: If 'env' is passed, the old broken spawning is used.
