It does need something other than the standard syscall wrapper, since 
syscall.S uses the stack.  So it needs a vfork.S, which is probably very 
simple -- drop the arg4 and arg5 handling, and save the return address 
to a register instead of dropping it on the stack (if that's even 
necessary, which I don't know.)
