Simply, Yes. 

This library is a largish compatible subset of Ruby 1.9's
`Process::spawn interface` and enhanced versions of `Kernel#system`,
`Kernel#`, etc. under Ruby >= 1.8.7 (currently MRI only). 

And, some other useful Ruby extended library depends this,
ruby-posix-spawn library. Thus I submit ITP report.

Best Wishes
