23/* libpthread once had its own fork, though there was no apparent reason
24 for it. There is no use in having a separate symbol in libpthread, but
25 the historical ABI requires it. For static linking, there is no need to
26 provide anything here--the libc version will be linked in. For shared
27 library ABI compatibility, there must be __fork and fork symbols in
f06f3f05 28 libpthread.so.

30 With an IFUNC resolver, it would be possible to avoid the
31 indirection, but the IFUNC resolver might run before the
32 __libc_fork symbol has been relocated, in which case the IFUNC
33 resolver would not be able to provide the correct address. */
