Any information you can share on this would be greatly appreciated.
 
I am having trouble making the POSIX library SYSTEM function work in a
program that also uses TURBOIMAGE.  The SYSTEM call works before doing a
DBOPEN but always fails after a DBOPEN.
 
The function returns a -1 with ERRNO set to 11 (EAGAIN - Resource busy, try
again).  It seems that SYSTEM executes FORK which is unable to create a new
process.
 
Any ideas?
