perhaps we can use a spoon()? Hmm, no, we have to remember ``there's
no spoon'' either. :-)
How about defining our own macro, say ac_fork(), that would be
#defined to fork(), if available, or vfork() otherwise, and
ac_vfork(), that would be #defined to vfork() if available, or fork()
otherwise? Then, people could still use fork() and vfork() to get
hard errors in case these functions are not available, and ac_fork()
and ac_vfork() to tell autoconf ``look, our program will work with
both fork and vfork, but we'd prefer this over that in case both are
available.''
