Bug #12398: process.c compile broken for noMMU architectures on 2.3.x

----------------------------------------
`rb_spawn_process()` in process.c tries different solutions for when `fork` and/or `spawnv` are/aren't available.
The last resort when both aren't is to use the `system()` call which stores the value in the `status` variable, which isn't declared.
It only affects 2.3.0+
