// We can't fork() on nommu systems, and vfork() requires an exec() or exit()
// before resuming the parent (because they share a heap until then). And no,
// we can't implement our own clone() call that does the equivalent of fork()
// because nommu heaps use physical addresses so if we copy the heap all our
// pointers are wrong. (You need an mmu in order to map two heaps to the same
// address range without interfering with each other.) In the absence of
// a portable way to tell malloc() to start a new heap without freeing the old
// one, you pretty much need the exec().)

// So we exec ourselves (via /proc/self/exe, if anybody knows a way to
// re-exec self without depending on the filesystem, I'm all ears),
// and use the arguments to signal reentry.
