137 * the child (the background) process send the following:
138 * void *routine -- routine to be invoked in the parent
139 * int nargc -- number of arguments
140 * int type -- Return argument type.

143 * that the process is dying.
145 * nargc arguments in the following format:
146 * int size of the coming block
147 * size bytes with the block
149 * Now, the parent loads all those and then invokes
150 * the routine with pointers to the information passed
151 * (we just support pointers).
153 * If the return type is integer:
155 * the parent then writes an int to the child with
156 * the return value from the routine and the values
157 * of any global variable that is modified in the parent
158 * currently: do_append and recursive_result.
160 * If the return type is a string:
162 * the parent writes the resulting string length
163 * if the result string was NULL or the empty string,
164 * then the length is zero.
165 * The parent then writes the string length and frees
166 * the result string.
169 * Receive requests from background process and invoke the
170 * specified routine
