No arguments here. As soon as the fork/exec changes are in place, count me
in!

Speaking of which, any ETA on this? Bruce? If anyone from core can indicate

It doesn't matter really --- I am working on the win32 port, and will
make sure it is done and I will make sure it is done so it doesn't
uglify our code.
