/* Execute a command, optionally redirecting any of the three standard file
   descriptors to /dev/null.  Return its exit code.
   If it didn't terminate correctly, exit if exit_on_error is true, otherwise
   return 127.
   If ignore_sigpipe is true, consider a subprocess termination due to SIGPIPE
   as equivalent to a success.  This is suitable for processes whose only
   purpose is to write to standard output.
   If slave_process is true, the child process will be terminated when its
   creator receives a catchable fatal signal.
   If termsigp is not NULL, *termsig will be set to the signal that terminated
   the subprocess (if supported by the platform: not on native Windows
   platforms), otherwise 0.
   It is recommended that no signal is blocked or ignored while execute()
   is called.  See pipe.h for the reason.  */
