xboard forks a gnuchessx process and dups the stdin and stdout file
descriptors of the forked process. xboard writes to and reads from
these file descriptors to `talk' to gnuchessx.
Likewise if you use the -fcp or -scp a remote shell command is forked
for a remote gnuchessx binary. The GriffyJr and GriffySr gnuchess
implementations on ICS run their xboard binary on a SPARC and run their
gnuchessx binary (the same one NFS mounted) on a 486 and Pentium
respectively.
