So it looks like we are really using the bash on the _child_ system, not the parent. Which would make sense (how do you chroot to the child system and still access the parents bash?).

Dan, did we stop using popen? Or are we forking now? http://projects.archlinux.org/?p=pacman.git;a=commit;h=9558639d8009483fbf422...

This code did not change. pacman forks a process and run popen in the child. I tried to look up documentation about popen and could not find anything about using the shell of the parent system.
