Say a process is created with rofrk flag RFCNAMEG
-- clean name space. A little confusion here: does
it mean that search path defaults (before rfork) are
now lost. If so, I would like to see an example code
for building new name space in the forked process.

The search path (contained in the environment)
is left alone, but there is no longer a /bin!

See /sys/src/libauth/newns.c. The # paths are still available
and are used to get back off the ground.
