Firstly, use GLib.Subprocess. It is a newer and easier API.
As far as the bug goes it 
is:https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/vala/issues/664https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/issues/1512
Really that needs someone with access to Mac and Windows 
to write a relevant test case in C for g_spawn_async_with_pipesAll I can find is 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/blob/master/tests/spawn-test.c
