explain_fork_or_die - create a child process and report errors

Description

       The explain_fork_or_die function is used to call the fork(2) system call.  On failure an explanation will

       exit(EXIT_FAILURE).

       This function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example:
              explain_fork_or_die();
