Helo,

It is my understanding that DJGPP does not support multiple processes to be
spawned.  I have seen that SPOC (Southumpton's Portable Occam Compiler) is a
tool that accomplishes translation from OCCAM->C without the use of fork().

They are implementing spawning with extensive use of setjmp() and longjmp().
Could it be possible that such an interface would be implemented for DJGPP
so as to have a fork()-like function?
