Today I've written a little bit of code that uses fork, wait and execvp directly. There's built in support for this kind of thing in std::process, however I'm not 100% sure which approach will be needed yet. We either need to beef up the command interface inside mod job or replace it with something that exists.
Key features to support:
[x] Basic execution
[x] Argument control (foo -b -bar --baz "more stuff")
[ ] Possible CString conversion function(s)
[x] Working directory control
[ ] Environment variable control (e.g. FOO=bar env) #27
