Comment (by nh2):
As a side note: In unix-2.5.0.0 (GHC 7.2), the haddocks of
{{{forkProcess}}} say
"GHC note: forkProcess is not currently supported when using multiple
processors (+RTS -N), although it is supported with -threaded as long as
only one processor is being used."
but as of unix-2.5.1.0 (GHC 7.4) that note is gone.
