Follow-up Comment #6, bug #49211 (project octave):
Bleah! I think that Octave needs it's own function wrapper around specific MS
API functions. This is what we do for popen2 where we call things like
CreateProcess
status = CreateProcess (0, command, 0, 0, TRUE, 0, 0, 0, &si, &pi);
Documentation for CreateProcess is here:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms682425%28v=vs.85%29.aspx.
It seems that maybe WaitForInputIdle might be a companion function:

This report clearly needs someone who both understands and is interested in
the Windows API. I can't help much here because I code on Linux.
