35 * On Mac OS X, the libintl code needs to call into the CoreFoundation
36 * framework, which is internally threaded, to initialize some caches.
37 * This is a problem when that first call is done after a fork(3),
38 * because per POSIX, only one thread will survive, leaving the
39 * process in a very inconsistent state, leading to crashes.
40 *
41 * XXX: To workaround this, we try to force the caches initialization
42 * at program startup time, by performing a dummy gettext() call.
