/* another interface to the fork(2) system call.
 *
 * the point is:
 *    - provide a way to make sure all outstanding fd's get freed.
 *    - provide a less weird interface to fork, by some standards ;)
 *
 * this interface is optional if you plan using 'exec(2)';
 * if you really don't want to use it for non-execing uses, at least
 * call gsk_fork_child_cleanup() from the child process.
