I can't actually remember why I disabled waitid for OS X - that was message was 
rather a long time ago :-(

Unfortunately, I don't currently have access to an OS X machine to test it.

A google search shows the following comment in the v8 javascript engine:
// We're disabling usage of waitid in Mac OS X because it doens't work for us:
// a parent process hangs on waiting while a child process is already a zombie.
// See http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=401.

Do you have access to test an older release like Leopard?
