>Organization:
The Pthread_Atfork Pthread_Atforkation
>Environment:
>Description:
If a pthread_atfork handler tries to call pthread_atfork, libc will be unhappy.
>How-To-Repeat:
Register a pthread_atfork handler that calls pthread_atfork, and then fork.
>Fix:
extra bookkeeping and synchronization, probably not really that costly at runtime because fork likely dominates it anyway, just mildly annoying to write
