>
> When I added {{-spawnChild}} to tika-server, I followed the pattern in
> ForkParser of redirecting stdout/stderr for the parent to listen to output
> from the child process. This relies on the parsers not grabbing a pointer to
> stdout/stderr _before_ we redirect it. However, it is possible for parsers
> to grab stdout/stderr during static initialization, as happens with log4j
> configured to write to stdout/stderr.
> This means that the communication channel from child to parent is unreliable.
> Let's switch child to parent communication in {{-spawnChild}} to a shared
> mmap'd file.
