+	* pex-unix.c (pexecute): Use vfork instead of fork, with
+	appropriate changes to make this safe.
+	* pex-common.h (STDERR_FILE_NO): Define.
+
 	* Makefile.in: Clean up REQUIRED_OFILES and CONFIGURED_OFILES for
 	an 80 column screen.  Run maint-deps.

+/* Execute a program, possibly setting up pipes to programs executed
+   via other calls to this function.
+
+   This version of the function uses vfork.  In general vfork is
+   similar to setjmp/longmp, in that any variable which is modified by
+   the child process has an indeterminate value in the parent process.
+   We follow a safe approach here by not modifying any variables at
+   all in the child process (with the possible exception of variables
+   modified by xstrerror if exec fails, but this is unlikely to be
+   detectable).
+
+   We work a little bit harder to avoid gcc warnings.  gcc will warn
+   about any automatic variable which is live at the time of the
+   vfork, which is non-volatile, and which is either set more than
+   once or is an argument to the function.  This warning isn't quite
+   right, since what we really care about is whether the variable is
+   live at the time of the vfork and set afterward by the child
+   process, but gcc only checks whether the variable is set more than
+   once.  To avoid this warning, we ensure that any variable which is
+   live at the time of the vfork (i.e., used after the vfork) is set
+   exactly once and is not an argument, or is marked volatile.  */
