Re: Bug: retry of clone() on Alpha can result in zeroed process thread pointer

[Richard Henderson]

Ok, I think I've actually found it this time.  It's here:

> 281		childregs->r20 = 1;	/* OSF/1 has some strange fork() semantics.  */
> 282		regs->r20 = 0;

We need to delay this r20 silliness until after restarts or something.  Or just
kill it -- it's not like glibc uses this return value.
