------- Additional Comments From tom dot honermann at oracle dot com  2009-01-16 17:19 -------
The Austin group met yesterday and retained the decision to interpret fork as
async-signal-unsafe with future specifications mandating that posix_spawn be
made async-signal-safe to fill the functionality gap.  Minutes of the meeting
are available at https://www.opengroup.org/austin/docs/austin_446.txt.

I think this bug can now be closed as "WONTFIX"
