Description-en: Module loading for forking or non-forking processes in Perl
The prefork pragma is intended to allow module writers to optimise module
loading for both scenarios with as little additional code as possible.
.
prefork.pm is intended to serve as a central and optional marshalling point
for state detection (the software is running in compile-time or run-time mode)
and to act as a relatively light-weight module loader.
