Amaury Forgeot d'Arc <amaur...@gmail.com> added the comment:

2.6 and 3.0.1 used to disable the Microsoft CRT argument error handler: they 
return EINVAL, but newer versions don't, and should check their arguments 
before calling _spawnv.

FWIW, the checks are::
    pathname != NULL
    *pathname != '\0'
    argv != NULL
    *argv != NULL
    **argv != '\0'
The first and third checks are guaranteed by the implementation, but the other 
three should be done in posix_spawnv().
And the other calls to the various nt.spawn* functions probably suffer the same 
problem.
