Commercial Invocation

What is the fallout of a commercial product that includes a GPL
command-line tool with its distribution, and invokes that GPL command-
line tool as part of its workflow?  In other words, the commercial
software does not link statically or dynamically with the GPL code, it
just launches the GPL executable.  Is that a sufficient barrier
between the commercial and GPL side to satisfy the GPL license?
