Subject: add CLONEf_KEEP_PTR_TABLE to win fork emulation.
X-Git-Url: http://git.shadowcat.co.uk/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=240bfeb992;p=p5sagit%2Fp5-mst-13.2.git

add CLONEf_KEEP_PTR_TABLE to win fork emulation.
This keeps the ptr-table table around after the thread has been created.
This has been on for user threads for a while now, but not for
Windows forks. Turns out that Variable::Magic relies on the table still
being there, so crashes under windows forks.  This increases memory usage
per fork, but stops things crashing. Sigh.
