Python 3.8 will support os.posix_spawn(). I would like to see it used
whenever possible instead of fork+exec, since it's faster and it can
be safer on some platforms. Pablo Salgado is your guy for that.

Awesome! Will this backported to 2.

Seems promising, but 3.7 does not support it. And I don't see whether
Python will work without fork().

Hello Python list,
I intend to cross-compile Python v3.6.6 to Threos ( https://threos.io )
operating system. Threos is supports a quite large set from POSIX and
C89/C99. Unfortunately, Threos lacks fork(2), but provides
posix_spawn(3) instead. I already made some local changes in
posixmodule.
