[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #41148] parallel package: fails to build in windows/mingw

[Tatsuro MATSUOKA]

Follow-up Comment #28, bug #41148 (project octave):

>As for the other issue, it seems that the good news that 'pipe()' (m-code) is
now working in Octave at MINGW is not enough -- we also need 'fork()' (m-code)
to work ... This applies regardless of whether 'parallel' is configured with
or without --disable-cluster. 

Native windows C compiler does not have fork(). However, fork () exist in
octave. We have to know how the octave implement of fork() on native windows. 
But this is beyond this topic.
