I think all of these cases can be detected, without negatively
affecting proper operation, by using start-process instead of
call-process with BUFFER=0.
I expect that would be slower in the usual case, and I don't want to
pay such a price.
The code would spawn the process, poll
the process for, e.g., 1 second, and if it is still running, continue.
(setq foo (start-process ...))
(sit-for 1)
A one-second delay is absolutely unacceptable.
If you can implement this method without any appreciable slowdown,
then I have no objection to switching to it.
