The obvious differences I see:
- SHELL is ignored by gmake in the posix_spawn path
- I'm a bit puzzled by the allocation, isn't it either allocation an
  extra element without using it or forgetting to set it to NULL
  explicitly?
- Isn't it passing a different argument as first parameter (full path vs
  just command name?)
