| 
| Hi,
| 
| prodded by an IRC snippet I’ll reproduce below, I just had a look:
| 
| tg@blau:~ $ ps x | fgrep lynx
| 17739 p7  ZW+     0:00.00 (lynx)
|  4010 p7  I+      1:08.53 lynx
| 
| These are probably spawned by DNS. Please add the appropriate
| wait*() calls to immediately reap them, and SIGCHLD handling.

It does do that (for quite a long time), e.g., with waitpid.
