[issue421] 'hg serve --daemon' crashes on windows

[Marcos Chaves]

New submission from Marcos Chaves <marcos.nospam at gmail.com>:

"hg serve --daemon" calls os.spawnvp(), which is not available on windows. This
crashes Hg with the following error messages:

** unknown exception encountered, details follow

** or mercurial at selenic.com
