... that would be great.  However, I think that some of the things that 
executable.py presently does are probably too complex to be handled with 
the subprocess module.  I suspect, however, that executable.py could 
itself make available as abstractions enough to permit 
ProcessTarget.QMTestExecutable to contain no OS-dependent code.  In 
fact, I don't really see any reason that QMTestExecutable couldn't 
derive from RedirectedExecutable.  Do you have any interest in trying to 
put together a patch to do that?
