What is the biggest problem here?
The Shmem/IPC stuff, or the fork() stuff?
I'm think that we could do a fork() implementation in usermode by copying the memory 
allocations.
How fast that would be regarding the context switches, i don't know, but i'm willing 
to experiment some to see how feesible this is...

Anyone tried this before?
