Almost all applications don't practically need to have more
children than 64, so setting the limit to 64 probably causes no
problem. (I found this problem as I was trying `lmbench' which
isn't an ordinary application.)

Anyway, fork() should report the error of too many children to
applications. I believe it is practically important.
