Opening windows from a forked process...

I have a problem with a program I am writing for our Iris 3020.
I have been trying to open a mex window from a forked process.
The parent process opens it's window (using winopen), but when the
child tries to open its window, I get the message:

        no more gfports in system!!

I assume the message comes from mex.
I don't understand what's going on. There seems to be no problems
for processes spawned with exec() to open windows.

Can anyone help??
