Folks,
We've run into a lot of trouble in recent builds when we attempt to fork
and are low on memory.  This change doesn't do anything to address the
actual memory usage; however, it makes it more likely that we'll
successfully fork a new process when memory is tight.

This change adds an Python interface to posix_spawn(3C) and creates a
subclass of the subprocess.Popen class to use it.

Webrev can be found at the location below.

Thanks,
