No. fork() and exec() are POSIX. Besides, Perl hides most
system-dependent stuff. 

There are some other ideas floating around in my head, but I'll
discuss them when I have more time. 

I also need to track down a nasty bug that causes glimpseindex to
clobber .glimpse_filenames when it is run with the -X switch. All I
can say so far is that the buffer with the current filename is
sometimes corrupted in memory.
