I'm having the same issue with PHP 5.2.8, Apache 2.2.11, GNU/Linux
(2.6.20-1.2320.fc5). A php script periodically (per user request)
executes the following command:
xsltproc <filename> <filename>
In some time the script starts throwing the "unable to fork" warning.
It is fixed by Apache restart.

Im using PHP 5.2.4 (cli), Apache & Mysql combination on a Slackware
box.
While running a script that processes large XML files and writes the
log to a log file, I get
Warning: exec(): Unable to fork
Initially the script runs fine for some 3 or 4 hours after which it
gives out the warnings. The script has a huge amount of data to process.
I also tried to use the nohup command but was of no use.
A screenshot of the problem is given below:

Is this related to the max number of processes allowed in the memory,
or a PHP-Apache prob??. Having a tough time ....
