- Support older GCC like 4.8.5 (janestreet/spawn#59)

characters (janestreet/spawn#58)
- Skip calls to pthread_cancelstate on android, as its not available (janestreet/spawn#52)

`_POSIX_PIPE_BUF` as a fallback. (janestreet/spawn#49)

description: """
4
+
Spawn is a small library exposing only one functionality: spawning sub-process.
5
+
6
+
It has three main goals:
7
+
8
+
1. provide missing features of Unix.create_process such as providing a
9
+
working directory
10
+
11
+
2. provide better errors when a system call fails in the
12
+
sub-process. For instance if a command is not found, you get a proper
13
+
[Unix.Unix_error] exception
14
+
15
+
3. improve performance by using vfork when available. It is often
16
+
claimed that nowadays fork is as fast as vfork, however in practice
17
+
fork takes time proportional to the process memory while vfork is
18
+
constant time. In application using a lot of memory, vfork can be
19
+
thousands of times faster than fork.
