[fpc-pascal] Run process and exit (win32)

[ik]

"Execute" is blocking, so it will continue to execute itself until you
will stop the execution.

You might wish to seperate the process by creating two executables,
and execute a program in the background so you could decide what to
do, like in a daemon way...
