Well, I have no experience with forking an address space, but how would the two 
communicate?  Usually, there is some sort of common shared storage which does 
require APF authorization to establish and cleanup.

Yes, it requires extra communication. But it solves your problem in a clean way 
:)

I'm not sure in what sense you mean "extra authorization". It does not require 
any form of system authorization (APF, supervisor state, system key), though it 
might require that the user ID that the main address space is running under has 
an OMVS identity (UNIX UID and GID) defined. But the ID may already be set up 
that way.
