By mistake I sent the message below as private one at first. However it
actually does not add anything new to my previous comments to the bug.

Sorry, I'm not sure I understand what this is all about. Are you
still talking about the patch you proposed?
Yes, I am. It is about proper way to a launch viewer in
`mailcap-view-file'. Original `start-process-shell-command' with 'pty
connection type prematurely kills children of kde-open5 or gio open.
With 'pipe connection type it or `make-process' might make emacs CPU
hungry if a child decides to close stdout and stderr:
#!/bin/sh
exec 1>&-
exec 2>&-
sleep 30
and finally `process-file-shell-command' does not allow to report
failure. Moreover you suspect another secret compatibility problem with
'pipe.
