Comment #2 on issue 253 by [email protected]: Correctly handle the symbolizer pipe on fork()
http://code.google.com/p/address-sanitizer/issues/detail?id=253

Currently symbolizer set up pipes and spawns new subprocess "on demand". We can indeed implement an "easy fix" and add a method that would close the pipes, and then call it in the child subprocess immediately after fork (though, looks like this machinery is available only in TSan). I don't fully understand the second suggested approach - it's kind of dangerous to spawn new threads in programs that could potentially be forked, isn't it? The symbolizer *does* grab a lock.
