OK, now I am lost. I just looked at -current kernel source and see that
freebsd rfork does not split the stack. What's funny is my old ca. 1994
rfork for freebsd does split the stack. In fact I now wonder if my design
was not somewhat nicer, since it does split the stack and requires no
user-land assembly code. I'm still running 16 nodes with that old OS and
old rfork and I'm going to not have fun upgrading them with -current 
rfork ...

now what?
