Follow-up Comment #5, bug #49211 (project octave):
Right, which is exactly what we used to do (waitpid callable but
non-functional).
I did some very light searching on cwait / _cwait, and MSDN has a comment
saying that it is only supported in CRT (console) applications, not in desktop
applications (if anyone understands this jargon). This may mean that the
gnulib waitpid wrapper is no good for our purposes and we may have to write
our own wrapper around a function like WaitForSingleObject.
