This is a spiffied-up rebase of a bunch of intermediate changes, presented as a whole because it is, surprisingly, less confusing that way. The basic idea is to separate the guts code into categories ranging from generic stuff that can be the same everywhere and specific variants. The big scary one is the Darwin support, which actually seems to run okay on 64-bit OS X 10.6. (No other variants were tested.) The other example given is support for the old clone() syscall on RHEL 4, which affects some wrlinux use cases. There's a few minor cleanup bits here, such as a function with inconsistent calling conventions, but nothing really exciting.

2010-12-07This is a merge of several commits from a tree which turned out toPeter Seebach
be out of sync in a very inconvenient way. Changes include: * Some whitespace fixes, also move the pseudo_variables definition into pseudo_util.c since it's not used anywhere else. * Further improvements in the fork() support: We now recognize both positive and negative forms of PSEUDO_DISABLED, so we can distinguish between "it was removed from the environment by env -i" (restore the old value) and "it was intentionally turned off" (the new value wins). * clone(2) support. This is a little primitive, and programs might still fail horribly due to clone's semantics, but at least it's there and passes easy test cases. Plus a big patch from Mark Hatle: Cleanup fork/clone and PSEUDO_DISABLED guts/fork.c: * cleanup function and make it more robust * be sure to call pseudo_setupenv prior to pseudo_client_reset to match exec behavior pseudo_wrappers.c: * fix mismatched type in execl_to_v call via typecast * Simplify fork call via single call to wrap_fork() * be sure to save pseudo_disabled * be sure to call pseudo_setupenv prior to pseudo_client_reset to match exec behavior tests: * Add a test of whether pseudo can be disabled/enabled on a fork.

2010-04-26Handle execve() betterPeter Seebach
You can't use setenv() to modify the environment that will be passed to a child process through execve()... Also, fix the setupenv() to use PSEUDO_SUFFIX if defined. Use execve() to spawn child processes, so we can use setupenv() and dropenv().
