Hi,

I am currently migrating our application from node 0.8 to 0.10 and would 
like to ask around the changes in how process behave in 0.10. Let's say I 
am spawning a process from my node application. I will have to attach two 
listeners (error and exit) to handle this child process lifecycle. Now, how 
would I be able to find out if a process has finished? I see that the error 
event can be triggered if the spawn failed, so this would mean my exit 
handler is never called. On the other hand, I might also get an error event 
if sending a message failed or killing failed, so I would still get an exit 
event. Third, I could add a listener for 'close', but I am not sure under 
which condition that is fired (e.g. also in error case?).

This makes it very hard to really handle the case where the process has 
finished, either through an error condition or normally.

Thanks for clarification,
Ben
