Subject: Use start_command() to run content filters instead of explicit fork/exec.
X-Git-Tag: v1.5.4-rc0~292^2~11
X-Git-Url: https://git.tokkee.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=dc1bfdcd1a8af81885f1831c5e6dcfe5cf61372e;p=git.git

Use start_command() to run content filters instead of explicit fork/exec.

The previous code already used finish_command() to wait for the process
to terminate, but did not use start_command() to run it.
