Should we also check for !S_ISDIR(&sb.st_mode), so that we explicitly
reject directories here, rather than failing later when trying to
execute them?  Or go one step further and require regular files, with
the stricter check for S_ISREG(&sb.st_mode)? (Note: symlinks to regular
files would still be okay, given that you used stat().)

English is funny on 'a' vs. 'an' before a word starting in 'h';
sometimes you just have to use a native speaker to get it right ;)

Duplicating the definition of all these helpers is a bit of a long
distraction in the middle of this function; is it worth a helper file,
where we could #include "command_line_builder.h" to get all these
helpers defined, and to reduce the duplication from
qemudBuildCommandLine by having the macros in one place?

Not new to your patch, but POSIX 2008 recommends that we should really
be checking confstr(_CS_V7_ENV), when that exists, for any other
environment variables that we might also need to copy to keep the child
process in an environment equally as conforming as the parent (for
example, whether POSIXLY_CORRECT needs to be propagated).  Probably not
worth worrying about, though, unless someone identifies an actual bug.

Should we be checking for close() failures, and reporting a system error?

I only saw minor problems as pointed out above; the overall patch looks
technically sound.
