Werner Koch b008274afd Nuked almost all trailing white space.
We better do this once and for all instead of cluttering all future
commits with diffs of trailing white spaces.  In the majority of cases
blank or single lines are affected and thus this change won't disturb
a git blame too much.  For future commits the pre-commit scripts
checks that this won't happen again.

descriptor retrieved from INFP to stdin. If R_OUTFP is NULL
connect stdout of the new process to /dev/null; if it is not NULL
store the address of a pointer to a new estream there. If R_ERRFP
is NULL connect stderr of the new process to /dev/null; if it is
not NULL store the address of a pointer to a new estream there. On
success the pid of the new process is stored at PID. On error -1
is stored at PID and if R_OUTFP or R_ERRFP are not NULL, NULL is
stored there.
The arguments for the process are expected in the NULL terminated
array ARGV. The program name itself should not be included there.
If PREEXEC is not NULL, the given function will be called right
before the exec.
Returns 0 on success or an error code. Calling gnupg_wait_process
and gnupg_release_process is required if the function succeeded.
FLAGS is a bit vector:
Bit 7: If set the process will be started as a background process.
This flag is only useful under W32 (but not W32CE) systems,
so that no new console is created and pops up a console
window when starting the server. Does not work on W32CE.
Bit 6: On W32 (but not on W32CE) run AllowSetForegroundWindow for
the child. Note that due to unknown problems this actually
allows SetForegroundWindow for all childs of this process.

The process exited without success. The exit code of process
