An overly long line?

Aside from the malformed comment ("/* can become negative */" with
spaces would have been OK), I am not sure where it can become
negative, unless wcslen() is allowed to return a negative value to
signal some kind of error (in which case, the comment should say
that), which is not the case.

The loop body in the post-context of this hunk looks like

>  	while (n > 0) {
>  		wchar_t c = wfilename[--n];
		... 'n' is not written anywhere else in this loop ...
	}

so an 'n' that is not negative before entering the loop can never
become negative by what the loop body does.

Indeed, this receives the return value of strlen().  I am not sure
if this comment is necessary, though.  Just like you omitted any
comment on size_t variables that receives .len in a strbuf, its
correctness is rather obvious.

The word is "negative".

But 'n' is also used to receive the result of strlen().  A kosher
rewrite may be to split it into two separate variables, 

	size_t cmdlen = strlen(cmd);
	ssize_t bytes_read = read(fd, buf, sizeof(buf)-1);

"length".

Again given "size_t strlen(const char *)", this may be sufficiently
obvious.

Ditto.

Missing SP around the words.

Again, given "size_t wcslen(const wchar_t *)", it may be obvious to
readers.

It is a bit unusual that "#ifdef X" is not closed with "#endif /* X */".
Some folks write "#endif /* !X */" but what I am wondering about is
a mismatch between _WIN64 and _AMD64.
