fork and vfork status

Hi all,

I'm trying to build busybox-1.9.1 for a no-MMU system with no
working fork() syscall. I found that throughout busybox there
are instances of code that use only fork() or only vfork() or
use one of them depending on the BB_MMU setting.

Is there any activity or perhaps available patches to resolve
the cases that do fork() unconditionally?

Regards,
Aleksey
