I don't know exactly where it is, but you could look at
http://repo.or.cz/w/glibc.git.

>From the manpage:

    Since version 2.3.3, rather than invoking the kernel's fork()
    system call, the glibc fork() wrapper that is provided as part of
    the NPTL  threading  implementation  invokes clone(2) with flags
    that provide the same effect as the traditional system call. The
    glibc wrapper invokes any fork handlers that have been established
    using pthread_atfork(3).
