It should be possible.  The clone(2) syscall is already there (for Linux
emulation); it just isn't in the NetBSD syscall table.

Note that there are some bugfixes in the clone(2) implementation in
-current, which may need backporting in order to make it work "correctly"
(...as "correctly" as a clone(2) call can work 8-).
