Note that a patch has been posted to SourceForge that purports to solve some thread vs fork problems:

http://sourceforge.net/patch/?func=detailpatch&patch_id=101226&group_id=5470

Since nobody has made real progress on figuring out why test_fork1 fails on some systems, would somebody who is able to make it fail please just try this patch & see what happens?
