Implementation for UNIX

On UNIX, a child process is forked to exec the program.  Three output
pipes are read by the parent process using a select call to block
until data are ready.  Two of the pipes are stdout and stderr for the
child.  The third is a special pipe populated by a signal handler to
indicate that a child has terminated.  This is used in conjunction
with the timeout on the select call to implement a timeout for program
even when it closes stdout and stderr and at the same time avoiding
races.

/*

TODO:

We cannot create the pipeline of processes in suspended states.  How
do we cleanup processes already started when one fails to load?  Right
now we are just killing them, which is probably not the right thing to
do.
