* macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c: implemented pthread_atfork() handler that
* unix/tcl.m4 (Darwin): recreates CoreFoundation state and notifier thread in the child after a fork(). Note that pthread_atfork() is available starting with Tiger only. Because vfork() is used by the core on Darwin, [exec]/[open] are not affected by this fix, only extensions or embedders that call fork() directly (such as TclX). However, this only makes fork() safe from corefoundation tcl with --disable-threads; as on all platforms, forked children may deadlock in threaded tcl due to the potential for stale locked mutexes in the child. [Patch 923072] * unix/configure: autoconf-2.59
