Replying to [comment:42 mmetz]:
> Has r42668 been an incomplete backport to 6.4? G_wait() has been
introduced in trunk with r40648, i.e. before the backport to 6.4.
40648 changed a lot of other stuff. Specifically, it replaced the existing
G_popen() function (which was just a wrapper around popen()) with a new
function based around G_spawn_ex(), and changed everything which was using
the previous G_popen() function accordingly.
It was at this point that the need for G_wait() was discovered, so it was
added as part of the same changeset (r40648).
6.4 still uses the old G_popen() function and 6.5 uses popen() directly,
so most of r40648 cannot be back-ported. But the changes to
lib/gis/spawn.c can and should be.
> Do the small differences in lib/gis/spawn.c between trunk and 6.4 really
make sense?
No; that file should be sync'd from trunk to 6.x.
