Can Boost.Process functionality be emulated with std::/boost::thread+std::system()? At least partially? Maybe that would be a suitable fallback?
That would mean you are on a platform that is neither posix nor windows, but has a std::system. That would simply not be supported by boost.process, so I don't know if a fallback would make sense at all. But, if we take a subset of boost.process to run on a third platform, it would need more functionality than this, i.e. at least redirecting I/O and wait/terminate. So I'd really need a use-case.
