I do not think there was off by one error. The create_thread() function
is called to create new thread, and before the process thread counter
is incremented in thread_link(). The old test tried to not allow more
then max_threads_per_proc threads in a process, now it allows to
create max_threads_per_proc.

My guess is that the reference to mentioned pthread_vfork_test failed
because reporter set kern.threads.max_threads_per_proc to 100. The
test actually tries to create 101 threads, 1 main + 100 new.
