P.S.: If you can get access to a copy of John Reppy's book "Concurrent 
Programming in ML" (Cambridge University Press, 1999, reprinted with 
corrections in 2007), chapter 7 presents an extended example of a 
software build system. In addition to the other interesting features of 
the problem domain, it provides an example of controlling external 
programs in Concurrent ML style.
