Feature Request: Samurai without posix spawn?

[Sunny-Maxis]

Colleague of mine has asked me to pass on this request.

Samurai will not build on certain OSes due to the non-negotiable use of posix_spawn in how it handles child processes.

However, muon, another project, embeds Samurai without the use of this syscall.

Their version:

`static bool samu_jobstart(struct samu_ctx *ctx, struct samu_job *j, struct samu_edge *e) { size_t i; struct samu_node *n; struct samu_string *rspfile, *content;

++ctx->build.nstarted;
for (i = 0; i < e->nout; ++i) {
    n = e->out[i];
    if (n->mtime == SAMU_MTIME_MISSING) {
        if (samu_makedirs(n->path, true) < 0)
            return false;
    }
}

rspfile = samu_edgevar(ctx, e, "rspfile", false);
if (rspfile) {
    content = samu_edgevar(ctx, e, "rspfile_content", true);
    if (samu_writefile(rspfile->s, content) < 0)
        return false;
}

j->edge = e;
j->cmd = samu_edgevar(ctx, e, "command", true);
j->cmd_ctx = (struct run_cmd_ctx){
    .flags = run_cmd_ctx_flag_async,
};

if (e->pool == &ctx->consolepool) {
    j->cmd_ctx.flags |= run_cmd_ctx_flag_dont_capture;
}

if (!ctx->build.consoleused)
    samu_printstatus(ctx, e, j->cmd);

bool cmd_started = false;
if (build_machine.is_windows) {
    cmd_started = run_cmd_unsplit(&j->cmd_ctx, j->cmd->s, 0, 0);
} else {
    char *argv[] = { "/bin/sh", "-c", j->cmd->s, NULL };
    cmd_started = run_cmd_argv(&j->cmd_ctx, argv, 0, 0);
}

if (!cmd_started) {
    samu_warn("failed to start job: %s", j->cmd_ctx.err_msg);
    j->failed = true;
    return false;
}

j->failed = false;
if (e->pool == &ctx->consolepool)
    ctx->build.consoleused = true;

return true;

} `

Is it possible for someone to make this happen?
