Review Comment:
   The Queue approach works in the fork path because the child inherits the 
multiprocessing state, including the Queue itself.
   
   With `subprocess.Popen(...)` we start a completely fresh Python interpreter, 
so there is no shared Queue unless we build a separate IPC layer 
(pipe/socket/fd passing/etc).
   
   We could do that, but it adds quite a bit of complexity compared to the 
current tempfile approach. The tempfile also avoids PIPE deadlocks and still 
captures early bootstrap/import failures before any IPC channel would be 
initialized.
