            Description

            When I use exec("tail -n 0 -F /tmp/a") instead of tail("/tmp/a"), the first entry was prepended with extra \x00 characters.

            {"body":"\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000blah","timestamp":1285866404293,"pri":"INFO","nanos":200615183613970,

            This is likely a bug in exec.
