Forking and executing
forkProcess :: IO () -> IO ProcessID
`forkProcess` corresponds to the POSIX `fork` system call. The `IO` action passed as an argument is executed in the child process; no other threads will be copied to the child process. On success, `forkProcess` returns the child's `ProcessID` to the parent process; in case of an error, an exception is thrown.
