We just have to explicitly remove the CLOEXEC flag from the fd before
the exec() happens.

Since we use `run_command` for the exec, I've been wondering if maybe
`run_command` itself should get an `fds => [ numbers ]` list it should
drop the CLOEXEC on before opening the subprocess and then restoring the
original flags afterwards.
