@Adam: I think you'll find the same in CPython. The subprocess command has to find an executable file, while a lot of commands are built into the cmd executable for which (unlike Unix) no corresponding executable exists. As for the original, I think Jim is right: Java won't let you change the real working directory. Jython tries to simulate it, but it may be better for it not to pretend.
