Checking in a bunch of spawn functions. These are only defined if we
...
have fork and execv (and friends) but not spawnv. They operate
exactly like the spawn functions on Windows. A limited set of needed
constants is also defined (P_WAIT, P_NOWAIT etc.).
Also add getenv() as a familiar alias for environ.get().

Don't assume GNU tar -- generate tar file and compress in separate steps.

Now supports the full range of intended formats (tar, ztar, gztar, zip).
"-f" no longer a short option for "--formats" -- conflicts with new
global option "--force"!

print a warning if the password will be echoed.

At import time, getpass will be bound to the appropriate
platform-specific function. If the platform's echo-disabler is not
available, default_getpass, which prints the warning, will be used

I found the following patch helpful in tracking down a bug in some
code. I had appended time, the module, instead of time.time(). Not
sure if it is generally true that printing the repr of the object is
good, but I expect that most unpicklable things will have fairly
information and concise reprs (like files or sockets or modules).
