vfork then. There is a Warning message in the debug of contentLister:

(CL_E)programManager.c:%d,%s() pmRunViewer: can't fork %s

So guess that this is the way of calling a application, forking contentLister and one of the branches waits for termination, or perhaps even feeds the keyboard input, who knows. But this does not explain the forks in "browser" itself (heavily patched minimo, remember).
