Hi,
When using external check processes in ldirectord, we encountered some
cases of zombies being left behind when the external process ran into
a timeout. This happened because nobody wait()ed on their exit status.
The following patch fixes this issue for us by just ignoring
SIGCHLD signals in the code branch that executes the checks.
