Looks good! I ran that 'fork-test 2' program with about
150000 iterations with 2.1.128+arca23. I had been able to
easilly reproduce the freeze under 2.1.127 (usualy <10000
iterations).

The only problem I have seen with this kernel to date
is that the tulip driver went out to lunch when ping
flooding the system during the above mentioned tests.
