test_fork1.py
"""This test checks for correct fork() behavior.
We want fork1() semantics -- only the forking thread survives in the
child after a fork().
On some systems (e.g. Solaris without posix threads) we find that all
active threads survive in the child after a fork(); this is an error.
While BeOS doesn't officially support fork and native threading in
the same application, the present example should work just fine. DC
