You are constantly ignoring proposals to iterate only on EINTR and EAGAIN, 
but do not make an argument why you do otherwise. Did I miss something?

As per Documentation/technical/api-run-command.txt, you should write an 
error here, except if (failed_errno==ENOENT && cmd->silent_exec_failure!=0).

I wonder what this parameter "1" is good for...
