Andrew, did you report a > radar issue associated with this? Hi Steven, No. The problem and fix were submitted by Nozomu Ando on emacs-pretest-bug a while ago. I thought it was acceptable to just use fork so I left it at that. I have not received reports of other problems related to this one. Would you like me to write a bug report to the darwin lists? Seems like they know about the problem with vfork but perhaps we can remind them. Andrew.
