This would improve things for multithreaded programs that call exec or
posix_spawn. There are not that many programs of this kind. But on the other
hand, multithreading is meant to be a "built-in" functionality nowadays,
and the burden of fopen-gnu is zero on the majority of the modern platforms
and small on the other platforms.

=> I've applied your patch.
