You are the expert with Windows background processes ;-)
1. You need a change in libtest to wait for the child process to finish before
you test the expected result.
2. You have to test that the downloads were *really* performed by the child and
not the parent process.
Not sure if `wait()` works for processes that forked after `system()` or
`popen()`.
If it doesn't, you have to find out the child process ID and `waitpid()` for it.
Regarding 2.: You could write the PID of the child into the debug log, so you
can find it there and compare with the above child PID.
Not sure how this is done on Windows. Just don't put too much work into it and
leave the test away if you feel uncomfortable with it. IMO, there are issues
that deserve attention much more.
