Unable to spawn process

[JonathanFrias]

I kept seeing an error coming from this library when using my nvim setup. The issue is that special buffers like nvim's terminal report a invalid cwd term:///path/to/file which causes the call to spawn to fail with some error. I have been able to trace down a solution that works for me in the following diff. I doubt this code is acceptable for this project, but I'm sharing since it works for me.
