Yes I agree it's an Apple-specific issue, and not relevant for what I care about in Guix / Nix (Although Oil will obviously run on OS X because it uses plain libc from source, as is officially supported) Cosmopolitan libc does seem interesting, because a shell basically only depends on libc. It would be interesting to get Oil to run like that, on platforms where fork() is supported (not bare metal I assume). Would it work on Windows? How do they do fork() emulation? I think that's very hard on Windows Oh yeah it looks like it's slow on Windows (and OpenBSD) https://justine.lol/cosmopolitan/functions.html https://justine.lol/cosmopolitan/functions.html So I don't think it would make sense as a path for portability for a "production" shell
