Nice links.  LOL, yes, musl source was going to be my next stop if the larger libc sources proved impossible for a mere mortal to reason about. :)

regarding macOS, agreed. If someone needs vfork() to work there, I believe it could be made to.

Options like selecting the architecture of the child process could be higher level options to the subprocess API.  Hiding the platform specific details of how that happens and deciding which underlying approach to use based on the flags.

multi-arch systems are a thing.  It is conceivable that we may even see non-esoteric multi-arch hardware at some point.
