  Modified files:
    sys/alpha/alpha      vm_machdep.c 
  Log:
  Fix the child's return path from fork so that fork will return 0
  in the child.  This corrects a problem where linux/alpha binaries see
  the child's return value of fork as the parent's pid.  This happens because
  linux/alpha binaries apparently check the return value directly, rather
  than looking for a non-zero value in a4, as *BSD & OSF/1 do.
