Hi.

As discussed in the PR, we should be more precise in our documentation.
The patch does that.

Ready for trunk?

The wording is kinda unclear because the modes in the parentheses are
all strict ISO modes, but the part before the parentheses says
NON-strict... I think you either need an additional "not" inside the
parentheses, or to change all the instances of -std=c* to -std=gnu*.

The wording in the patch doesn't make sense to me, either.  If I understand the 
issue correctly, the intent is probably to say something like

Unless a strict ISO C dialect option is in effect,
@code{fork} calls are detected and correctly handled without double counting.

Hi Sandra.

Thank you for the feedback, I'm sending version you suggested. Hope it's fine 
to install the patch?

Ummm, no. Sorry to have been unclear; the wording I suggested above was intended to replace the existing sentence about fork behavior, not to be appended to it.
