Maybe it should, at least when using the spawn=deny option, but currently it 
doesn't. That option only blocks the fork, vfork and execve syscalls, but 
glibc's fork() function uses the clone syscall, and thus continues to work.
However, that behavior might be different when using other C library 
implementations, so it wouldn't be correct to rely on this.
One could use clone() instead of fork(), but future versions of qemu might 
block the clone syscall, as well.

Unfortunately, I'm not aware of a proper solution for this bug short of
adding a new API to the kernel.
