78 dnl Test whether posix_spawn actually works.
79 dnl posix_spawn on AIX 5.3..6.1 has two bugs:
80 dnl 1) When it fails to execute the program, the child process exits with
81 dnl exit() rather than _exit(), which causes the stdio buffers to be
82 dnl flushed. Reported by Rainer Tammer.
83 dnl 2) The posix_spawn_file_actions_addopen function does not support file
84 dnl names that contain a '*'.
85 dnl posix_spawn on AIX 5.3..6.1 has also a third bug: It does not work
86 dnl when POSIX threads are used. But we don't test against this bug here.
