  47 current process. This is different to child_open_exim(), which runs another
  48 Exim process in parallel (but it then calls this function). The function's
  49 basic job is to build the argv list according to the values of current options
  50 settings. There is a basic list that all calls require, and an additional list
  51 that some do not require. Further additions can be given as additional
  52 arguments. An option specifies whether the exec() is actually to happen, and if
  53 so, what is to be done if it fails.

  58                  CEE_EXEC_PANIC  => panic-die on exec failure
  59   kill_v         if TRUE, don't pass on the D_v flag
  60   pcount         if not NULL, points to extra size of argv required, and if
  61                    CEE_RETURN_ARGV is specified, it is updated to give the
  62                    number of slots used
  63   minimal        TRUE if only minimal argv is required
  64   acount         number of additional arguments
