/* XXX: FEATURE: I shouldn't actually use system(3) at all. I don't
   really need the /bin/sh invocation which takes resources and
   introduces security problems. I should switch all of this to a sort
   of execl() or execv() interface/implementation.

/* Like system(3), but with error messages printed if the fork fails
   or if the child process dies due to an uncaught signal. Also, the
   return value is a bit simpler:

   -1 if there was any problem
   Otherwise, the 8-bit return value of the program ala WEXITSTATUS
   as defined in <sys/wait.h>.
