From 693ffb8466ada58ecc59fde754ba79fc6f51528d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Jeremy Allison <jra@samba.org>
Date: Tue, 2 May 2000 02:23:41 +0000
Subject: Added sys_fork() and sys_getpid() functions to stop the overhead of
 doing a system call every time we want to just get our pid. Jeremy. (This
 used to be commit 148628b616b5c29ba6340d65fc3ddbcabba6e67a)
