* 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
* unix/tclConfig.h.in: autoheader-2.59
