          Issue ID: 24825
           Summary: std.process.browse should use internal functions for
                    executing subprocess
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P1
         Component: phobos

          Reporter: schveiguy gmail.com

The browse function predates std.process, and uses its own mechanisms to create
a process. This resulted in at least one bug (issue 24824).

The internals should just call `spawnProcess` or whatever it takes to properly
execute the browser process, instead of reimplementing most of it.
