What 16bit processor are you programming on? Or are you reading from an ancient text book?Code:ERRORS
[EAGAIN] The system-imposed limit MAXUPRC (<sys/param.h>) on
the total number of processes under execution by a
single user would be exceeded.
Psst, the Linux recursive acronym stands for Linux Is Not UniX. Yes I know it's not an acronym, but it sounds plausable
But why not? wouldn't surprise me if there were distros that ran on microwaves. The community seems to have a penchant for porting to wild and arcane architectures.
The `fork' system call has heritage spanning long before the "Linux" kernel got on the scene.

Who said anything about Linux anyway? The OP asked about UNIX. POSIX is POSIX though right?
Should be in a museum that's for certain :D
The "Commodore 64" port of an early "UNIX" clone is, surprisingly, still maintained.
