// AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges fork()s and exec()s the tool, but it
// does not wait() for it.  It also doesn't provide the caller with access to
// the forked pid.  If used irresponsibly, zombie processes will accumulate.
//
// Apple's really gotten us between a rock and a hard place, here.
//
// Fortunately, AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges does give access to the
// tool's stdout (and stdin) via a FILE* pipe.  The tool can output its pid
// to this pipe, and the main program can read it, and then have something
// that it can wait() for.
//
// The contract is that any tool executed by the wrappers declared in this
// file must print its pid to stdout on a line by itself before doing anything
// else.
