I am on the home-stretch for a business trip to work in the Bay area, so will be very busy for a few days. However, I think that we have just hit a critical mass for implementing clone as-is. It won't be difficult, because we already have the primitives in the kernel. However, it will be a few weeks before I can work on it (unless someone else with the savvy can do it.) That is, if our 'rfork' wont do it for you. -- John | Never try to teach a pig to sing, dyson@freebsd.org | it just makes you look stupid, jdyson@nc.com | and it irritates the pig.
