OK, it's not execl().

The problem is here:
lib/gis/list.c

        if (lister)
            sprintf(buf,"ls '%s'", path);
        else
            sprintf(buf,"ls -C '%s'", path);

which is unlikely to work in MS-Windows. No idea, how to
solve that, though. Someone may implement a workaround
for MS-Windows.
