I asked this one a while back and haven't heard any response. Thought I'd
ping again.

Performer 2.x, OpenGL, IRIX 6.x, 8 R4400s, 3-pipe iR.

If I use a single pipe and specify PFMP_APP_CULLDRAW with pfMultiprocess,
pfGetMultiprocess returns 2 before and after pfConfig. BUT when I use more
than one pipe, pfGetMultiprocess returns 2 before pfConfig and 0x16 after
pfConfig. Why does pfConfig fork my draw process, and what does the
higher-order bit (0x10) mean? ... and how do I get APP_CULLDRAW on multiple
pipes? I want one APP process and one CULLDRAW process for each of my three
pipes (4 processes total).
