Comment (by duncan):
Ian points out that it's the `waitForProcess` that is the problem. That is
the thing that blocks the whole process, when we're using the single
threaded rts.
We conjecture this code is impossible to write correctly using
runInteractiveProcess and the single threaded rts. It may be possible
using the newer createProcess function.
