Hmm, By simply resuing clone() on 64 bit and adding a new call for 32-bit won't the semantics of clone() differ between the two ? i.e clone() on 64 bit supports say CLONE_NEWPTS clone() on 32bit does not ? Wouldn't it be simpler/cleaner if clone() and clone64() behaved the same on both 32 and 64 bit systems ?
