This is very likely the case. Pretty much the entire library can be
summed up by bfork_fork, which is the following.
SEXP res;
pid_t pid;
if((pid = fork()) == 0) {
PROTECT(res = eval(lang1(fn), R_GlobalEnv));
PROTECT(res = eval(lang2(install("q"), mkString("no")), R_GlobalEnv));
UNPROTECT(2);
}
return ScalarInteger(pid);
I wrote this lib when I was still in school and can see several issues
with the implementation of `bfork_fork`. This issue happens because
we do not exit with _exit, but by essentially calling q("no").
Cheers,
