I've updated my pull request with an additional commit. So, short of a final review, it should be ready to get merged...

I'd like to raise one question though: What about the integration of the "stubprocess.py" wrapper? Wasn't this planned for the next 
release 2.5? If we want to keep it this way, it might be better to *not* merge my PR into "trunk" right now, but only onto the 
python3 branch directly.
Like this, we could work on the "stubprocess" thingy, merge it to "trunk" first, and only then put PR#284 on top. This would give us 
the opportunity to release a 2.5 with the "stubprocess.py" speedup, but still (some) backward compatibility to Python 2.6...so more 
users could benefit from this?

Just as an idea...

Best regards,

Dirk
