Why would you do that?

The grass.script.core.*_command functions are all thin layers on top
of Python's subprocess.Popen() interface. The only reason they exist
is to allow the programmer to use Python's keyword-argument syntax
rather than having to construct the argument list separately.

If you already have an argument list, just use subprocess.Popen() (or
grass.script.core.Popen(), which will hopefully work around some of
Windows' shortcomings) directly.
