Description
Currently the sn1 brand emulates both fork1() and uname().  The uname()
emulation allows us to report that we are running a Solaris 10 zone on
Nevada and a Solaris 9 zone on Solaris 10.

The fork1() emulation is a strict pass-through that serves no purpose.  It
was originally added when the callback code was first being developed, and
has never been removed.
