libfortran/90038: Use posix_spawn instead of fork
fork() semantics can be problematic. Most unix style OS'es have posix_spawn which can be used to replace fork + exec in many cases. For more information see e.g. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/uploads/prod/2019/04/fork-hotos19.pdf This replaces the one use of fork in libgfortran with posix_spawn. 2019-05-17 Janne Blomqvist <jb@gcc.gnu.org> PR libfortran/90038 * configure.ac (AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE): Check for posix_spawn. * intrinsics/execute_command_line (execute_command_line): Use posix_spawn. * Makefile.in: Regenerated. * config.h.in: Regenerated. * configure: Regenerated. Regtested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu. From-SVN: r271340
