  Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:

  The macros @code{WIFSIGNALED}, @code{WIFEXITED}, @code{WIFSTOPPED},
  @code{WTERMSIG}, @code{WEXITSTATUS}, @code{WNOHANG}, @code{WUNTRACED},
  @code{WSTOPSIG} are not defined in @code{<stdlib.h>} (only in
  @code{<sys/wait.h>}) on some platforms:
  MirBSD 10.

  Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
  @itemize
  @item
  On Windows platforms (excluding Cygwin), the command processor used by the
  @code{system} function is @file{cmd.exe}, not @file{/bin/sh}.  Accordingly,
  the rules for quoting shell arguments containing spaces, quote or other special
  characters are different.
