Is Apple unclear about the nature of the classic BSD daemon() function?
It's not about "launching" a daemon from an "rc" script or inetd,
but about cleaning things such as stray file descriptors and
controlly ttys before the started daemon begins work.

That making dccifd worked suggests that a new version of `ld` in
MacOS X is broken.  That sounds unlikely, but I don't have a test
system or any other idea besides the thought that thrlib/libthr.a
was not rebuilt after the patch was applied.
