The earlier mention was right; a OS-9 process's data memory does not get
moved.  (Of course, 99.9+% of programs under Unix that use fork() read

	if (fork() == /* whatever says I'm the child */)
		exec[a-z]*("what I really wanted to run", ...);

so I don't think that OS-9's at any great loss for not having Unix's
fork().)
