+   and start function solves most the vfork limitation (possible parent

+
+   1. That no signal handlers must run in child context, to avoid corrupting
+      parent's state.
+   2. The parent must ensure child's stack freeing.
+   3. Child must synchronize with parent to enforce 2. and to possible

+
+   The first issue is solved by blocking all signals in child, even the

+   is done by a stack allocation in parent and a synchronization with using
+   a pipe or waitpid (in case or error).  The pipe has the advantage of
