# SYNOPSIS
#
# AX_FUNC_FORK
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
# Check to for a working fork. Use to provide a workaround for systems
# that don't have a working fork. For example, the workaround for the
# fork()/exec() sequence for DOS is to use spawn.
#
# Defines HAVE_NO_FORK is fork() doesn't work or isn't implemented.
