Hi Adhemerval,

Thank you a lot for your feedback. I'll prepare a second patch-set with
the changes you suggested. Since I'm not fully confident with what
POSIX_SPAWN_SETSID does, I'd really appreciate if you can review the
changes once I submit the patch-set and let me know if something does
not seem right to you.

Thank you by advance,
Olivier
