FWIW, I'm opposed to the "#!" change to MinGW. It just seems hackish to me, and it means that we'll pay an additional cost on all normal uses of pex-* on MinGW, even after the compiler is installed.


Not if it's implemented after CreateProcess fails, we won't.  I don't
think your argument applies.

Good point!


I still think it's a bad solution, though; it's imposing special semantics for process execution in libiberty, rather than the normal ones that you would expect from the OS.
