I would like to get the attached patch incorporated into Jython if at all possible.  The patch adds support for the IBM i platform.

Only two source files from the existing Jython code base were updated.  Here are the file names and a brief description of their updates:

subprocess.py (2 lines inserted/2 lines modified) - Add special handling for environment variable initialization for the IBM i platform. 

os.py (4 lines inserted) - Add code to Jython to automatically detect it is running on the IBM i platform and then map the os name and shell to the appropriate values.
