I tried setting detach-on-fork to off and follow-fork to "child" and it
all just froze. Possibly I'm misunderstanding its use?

Could you advise on its intended use and how it integrates with
follow-fork-mode or catch fork? I set follow to "child", detach to "off"
and then "info fork" reported no forks after the fork() call while in
the childs code.

"both" is now removed for "follow-fork"?
