Apologies, I forgot to mention the dependency on:

Hi folks,
I'd like to backport this change to JDK7. Note: this fix uses
posix_spawn by default on Mac OSX only. On Solaris fork will remain
the default behaviour.
I've just noticed that there is a problem with the testcase on
Solaris in that it will test fork twice. (and won't test posix_spawn)
I'll figure out a way around this, but in the mean time I'd like to
get the ball rolling on this review anyway.
