Then I don't know the answer.

But it seems fork() runs OK in my Perl for Windows:

C:\>more < test.pl
#!perl -w

$pid = fork();

if ($pid == 0)
{ print "I'm child.\n";
}
else
{ print "I'm parent.\n";
}

C:\>perl test.pl
I'm parent.
I'm child.

C:\>perl -v

This is perl, v5.6.0 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread (with 1 registered patch, see perl -V for more detail)
