What are you afraid of ? :-)

I don't think they will change, but there is a problem that remains: when you 
use EXEC or SHELL with WAIT, the interpreter waits for the process end 
without calling the event loop. Doing that cleanly needs a system call that 
does not exist on Linux (pselect) but that seems to be emulated by the GNU 
libc. Maybe I will use it before the 1.0, maybe not if this is too 
complicated.
