    99A possible solution might be to [http://www.scsh.net/docu/html/man-Z-H-4.html#node_sec_3.4.1 encapsulate processes in process objects similar to Scsh] (or [http://docs.racket-lang.org/reference/subprocess.html subprocess values as Racket calls them]) and change {{{process-wait}}} to retain the process' exit status once it has been collected, allowing for it to be called multiple times. This would of course break backwards compatibility and thus should be handled as a Change Request.
