before we can invoke fork() -- flush stdio buffers, save and restore the profiling timer on Linux with LINUX_PROFILE, and handle BeOS stuff. This patch moves that code into a single function, fork_process(), instead of duplicating it at the various callsites of fork(). This patch doesn't address the EXEC_BACKEND case; there is room for further cleanup there.REL8_1_STABLE
