Currently libgcj assumes it can waitpid(-1,...).
This interacts poorly with other libraries which may
want to interact with subprocesses; for instance glib
has an API for spawning and waiting for children, and
frysk has to work around this problem (by disallowing
the use of Process).

libgcj ought to have a way to hook into the low-level
process code so that it can interact gracefully with
other libraries.  I think it is ok if this is CNI only.
