Gnulib maintains a list of portability issues for many POSIX functions.
None of the issues currently listed for execvp etc. seem like they'd be
much of a problem for practical grep usage. Please see:
http://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/manual/html_node/execvp.html
If there are significant issues that Gnulib doesn't document, it'd be
nice to know what they are, as we should fix them in Gnulib and/or
describe them in the Gnulib documentation. This would benefit other GNU
applications.
