Because you can't start up UNIX processes with "launch" or "open
process" on Mac OS X, you can only use them with shell(). Which as it
turns out is the only thing that would make any sense with simple
programs like "/bin/date" anyway because that program doesn't support
stdio.
We may eventually need to add an option to "open process" on OS X to
allow this, but for now it's one of those messy areas that's still
stuck in the "MacOS compatibility" box.
