What you are saying is that behavior of the posix_spawn interface is not
intended to be well-specified. I think that is a lousy choice.
If there are other differences than atfork handlers, they should be clearly
specified and explicit in the description of the flag. I don't care what
linuxthreads does, it might as well just not suppose the flag at all.
