It's a bit inefficient to use a pipe, here.  However, using
dwaitpid() on a process that's not expected to exit soon is
also inefficient as it causes excessive wakeups as most of
our inbox-writing code expects synchronous waitpid().

This only affects -watch instances configured for NNTP and IMAP
clients.
