 Okay, I don't yet have Leopard, but there definitely was an occasional
 hang in the nightly Boost test on PowerPC Tiger (10.4.11) hardware.  This
 is the vfork issue and has been fixed in the trunk.  I have never seen the
 hang on Intel hardware.

 I'll leave this ticket open for a bit longer.  Please let me know if you
 have any other data on this issue.
