Hi Martin,
Your email is hardly readable, because
1. it is a HTML email,
2. when viewing it as plain text - which is the only secure way to read mail
[1] - the cited text is not indented.
Please configure your mailer for plain-text mail [2], if you want to continue
to write to mailing lists. And indent or otherwise mark cited text.

No one claimed that _spawnvp() is returning a pid.

What does this program print?
And this program proves nothing, because you cast away the upper 32 bits
of 'ret' before printing.
