 Log Message:
 arc4random(3): Provide a fallback in case pthread_atfork fails.
 
 This is considerably more work and burden on testing than simply
 statically preallocating a bit of storage for pthread_atfork to
 eliminate the failure mode altogether, but it is less work than
 arguing further over the atfork interface:
