Most OSes use the more modern unit Process that also supports piping, but I suspect that doesn't work for Dos.

In general Posix abstractions are not used by FPC for targets here it is not the default interface (dos,windows,OS/2, AmigaOS etc), so baseunix is mostly *nixy targets only, as the name implies. (Linux,FreeBSD, OS X, but also e.g. BeOS/Haiku)
