Are there any fork() libraries for DJGPP that I could try? Every time I
build an app that calls for fork(), I run out of memory. I read a FAQ that
said that fork() is not implemented in DJGPP. So  it could be that
.configure think that there is fork, but there really isn't. This could also
be the cause that Python is running out of memory when it is trying to start
GCC from inside a setup.py script.

Just a hunch.
