>Description:
	
The vfork manpage is out-of-date.  It implies that vfork has the old
semantics still.  It alludes to the new semantics in the BUGS section.
A brief look at sys/kern_fork.c seems to suggest it's already here
(as does D&I/4.4BSDOS).

>How-To-Repeat:
	
>Fix:
	
update to reflect new fork/vfork semantics
