[comp.os.mach] behavior question

Hi,

Consider the following senario: at run-time, a program calls
vm_allocate_and_bind, vm_inherit and fork_and_bind repeatedly to
create a set of parallel processes with overlapping regions of shared
vm.  What happens if some process now tries to increase break into one
of these regions?  Does the request simply fail?  If not, is there a
proper way of handling this situation?

TiA, Craig.
