As far as I understand, any major open source project don't use

Please remind, I'm talking about real world issue.
This doesn't mean they shouldn't. If you require code to be changed
anyway let them change to something which doesn't require more cruft
in the kernel. The limitations you cited are irrelevant for
posix_spawn. And perhaps there will be actually spawn support in the
kernel which would make dealing with OOM situations and non-overcommit
much easier.
Umm... I'm sorry. I haven't catch why OOM is related topic. Could you please
elaborate more?
