Remove the paragraph about writing to the Free Software Foundation's
mailing address. The FSF has changed addresses in the past, and may do
so again. In 2021 this is not useful, let's rather have a bit less
boilerplate at the start of source files.

in a non-blocking way. Similar to 'system', but without waiting for
the child to complete. We also want to close all file descriptors
ahead of the exec() and filter + modify the environment.
