it's better to avoid forking at all. it's *very* hard to do forking 
right, it's almost impossible to do it right even in single-threaded app, 
and it's impossible to do it right in multithreaded app. `fork()` is a 
can full of worms, it may surprise you even on seemingly simple code.

i suggest you to just drop forking and use shell script instead. you can 
lost alot of time trying to force your forked code to work right, and 
then it will break again on any move (or even when moon will change it's 
phase).
