Hi --

I'm aware fork() is not implemented in MacRuby yet, and it may never be from 
what I read but I'd just like to introduce a use case i've come across recently 
that might have you reconsider?

I am writing ruby bindings for the features exposed in the "sandbox" header, 
and you really need to fork a process if you don't want your parent process to 
inherit the restrictions the sandbox imposes .. 

I came across the problem with CoreFoundation not allowing you to fork() 
without immediately executing exec() , and I presume this is one of the reasons 
fork() in MacRuby might not be implemented but is there any workaround to see 
fork() being implemented? 

Just thought I'd add that to the table.

Thanks,
Rob
