>    Affects Versions: 1.4.0

> In {{process/posix/subprocess.hpp}}'s {{childMain}} we exit with {{ABORT}} when there was a user error,
> {noformat}
> ABORT: (/pkg/src/mesos/3rdparty/libprocess/include/process/posix/subprocess.hpp:195): Failed to os::execvpe on path '/SOME/PATH': Argument list too long
> {noformat}
> We here abort instead of simply {{_exit}}'ing and letting the user know that we couldn't deal with the given arguments.
> Abort can potentially dump core, and since this abort is before the {{execvpe}}, the process image can potentially be large (e.g., >300 MB) which could quickly fill up a lot of disk space.
