Nothing; I have to admit, I didn't know it was there, until I was
largely done with what I had done.  The internal module did not
have the original function of daemonizing, and had been and over
time, taking on many/most of the attributes of daemonizing.

As such, I never explored the feasibility of refactoring to utilize
Proc::Daemon.

I haven't tried Proc::Daemon to see, but from it's write-up:

  http://search.cpan.org/~deti/Proc-Daemon-0.05/lib/Proc/Daemon.pod

    "6. The second child closes all open file descriptors."

it may have the same issue with DATA and END...
