Summary:                    Somtimes the count of grandchild processes does not
decrease.
Description: 
I'm sorry, my English is poor.

After many access to dbmail-imapd, somtimes the count of grandchild 
processes does not decrease to NCHILDREN all the time.

I could know by using strace command that the child process of 
dbmail-imapd stopped at the waitpid() as follows.

  [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# strace -p 21208
  Process 21208 attached - interrupt to quit
  waitpid(3422,

I sent SIGTERM to the grandchild process(in the above example:pid = 3422)
with kill command, then the child process resume and the count of 
grandchild processes decreased.

I think this cause is that the waitpid function is called without 
WNOHANG option in the pool.c:reap_child(). Is this intentional? 
Any idea?
