The Austin group met yesterday and retained the decision to interpret fork as
async-signal-unsafe with future specifications mandating that posix_spawn be
made async-signal-safe to fill the functionality gap. Minutes of the meeting
are available at https://www.opengroup.org/austin/docs/austin_446.txt.
I think this bug can now be closed as "WONTFIX"
