Take a look at aetsk102.zip in SimTel/vendors/djgpp/v1tk. Also in a C User 
Journal about March 1993.

I think aetsk102.zip is in C++, but I used the idea in C. To do the equivalent 
of a fork() a second stack is set up, I forget precisely how, and setjmp() and 
longjmp() are used to used to save and restore process state. I did not 
implement exec().
