Is this really the error we want to return on fork()?

EAGAIN to me indicates a spurious error and we should try again later;
however as it obvious from the code above; we'll always fail, there's no
point in trying again later.

I would think something like EINVAL; even though there are no arguments
to fork(); would me a better option.

Then again; I really don't care too much; anybody any preferences?
