Won't stop the *nix know-nothings from criticizing Windows for not natively supporting fork().

Funny side note, Perl fakes fork() on Windows using (I believe) threads. I am not sure if that is better or worse than Windows having fork() natively, though.

Some people would probably argue that if you use Perl, you have much bigger problems to worry about, but that's another debate.
