Details
cl.py is currently executed inefficiently on Windows.
Every CC and CXX is prepended with CC_WRAPPER and CXX_WRAPPER, which executes "python.exe cl.py". If we are using PyMake, we should execute the Python method natively. This will save two extra processes per compiler invocation (1 for python.exe and 1 for the shell that PyMake will spawn to process the command string containing python.exe).
As part of filing this, I thought we would also incur an extra process as part of passing a string to Python's subprocess.Popen(). But, Process Explorer shows cl.exe as the immediate child of python.exe, so I think we're fine.
