* unix/configure.in:
* unix/tcl.m4:
* unix/tclUnixPipe.c: removed checking for compatible vfork
function and use of the vfork function. Modern VM systems rarely
suffer any performance degradation when fork is used, and it
solves multiple problems with vfork. Users that still want vfork
and add -Dfork=vfork to the compile flags. [Bug: 942 2228 1312]
