Hello! Sorry for silence, i was completely busy with other interesting stuff... By this time i have calmed down and remade my thoughts... First, since i am interested, i will conduct the research about that code between fork() and exec() and try to implement some test cases for it. Perhaps this can have also something to do with #39825. Alternative idea. Looks like you don't like spawn() because it is poorly documented and "isn't guaranteed to behave the same on all operating systems". What if we implement posix_spawn() for Cygwin ? Would you like that ? One more alternative idea. What if we clearly define spawn() specification for Cygwin ? It can be based on the rationale that spawn() is there to offer more performant version of fork() + exec(), and its behavior, ideally, should strictly follow original semantics of this pair.
Eli, Christopher ? Your responses to this ? P. S. Eli, what about my other work (abspath fix) ? I don't see it in GIT log, and also i see no feedback, so... May be you just don't want to accept anything, and i'm just annoying you ?
