"""This test checks for correct fork() behavior.
We want fork1() semantics -- only the forking thread survives in the
child after a fork().
On some systems (e.g. Solaris without posix threads) we find that all
active threads survive in the child after a fork(); this is an error.
2000-09-01 16:25:51 -03:00
On BeOS, you CANNOT mix threads and fork(), the behaviour is undefined.
That's OK, fork() is a grotesque hack anyway. ;-) [cjh]
