libuv: Avoid posix_spawn on macOS < 10.8 (!9371) · Merge requests · CMake / CMake

Brad King requested to merge brad.king/cmake:libuv-macos-10.5 into master Mar 25, 2024

Since libuv PR 3257, uv_spawn on macOS < 10.8 has been observed to cause kernel panics and/or resource exhaustion. This became particularly noticeable in CMake since !8665 (merged). Prefer fork over posix_spawn in libuv when targeting macOS < 10.8.
