Subject: Pending patches for MT-fork stuff
In investigating the MT-fork deadlock stuff and working on a patch
that makes it attempt to trap rather than deadlocking, I found a
problem with interaction of fork and aio. A fix for that, along with
the patch to trap, and a minimal testcase for the aio bug, are
attached.
There's also a problematic interaction of abort with fork that was
just found in glibc that also exists in musl, that I still need to
fix. I'll follow up later with a proposed solution for that.
