Commit 1a296762b3 made libcasper pass PD_NOWAITPID to pdfork(2).
Kernels predating the flag (15.1 and earlier, since the flag first
ships in 15.2) reject it with EINVAL, which makes cap_init() and every
service fork fail when a newer world runs on an older kernel, for
example in a poudriere jail.
Add casper_pdfork(), which retries without the flag on EINVAL, and use
it at both pdfork(2) call sites. The retry is safe because the kernel
validates pdfork flags before creating a child. On such kernels the
zombie must still be reaped with waitpid(2), as before the flag was
introduced.
The fallback is compiled out once __FreeBSD_version reaches 1700000,
so it disappears from main when stable/16 branches while remaining in
the stable/15 and stable/16 branches that need it.

FreeBSD Source:
This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.
FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
