I mean remove.
This test is highly dangerous and enters into a fork loop on Windows,
necessitating use of an administrator level console prompt to recover
the system.
Fortunately the grand-parent process terminates after it's child has
successfully forked, which is the only thing stopping this test from
being a fork bomb and totally taking down the system.
