Johann Tonsing added the comment:
Thanks for explaining.
(FWIW I reported this because several examples / recipes I saw elsewhere
on the net used os._exit() in the parent. Perhaps they did this because
they don't want to disrupt resources like file descriptors which the
child has inherited
New submission from Johann Tonsing:
The document from which http://docs.python.org/lib/os-process.html was
generated contains:
Note: The standard way to exit is sys.exit(n). _exit() should normally
only be used in the child process after a fork().
Should child be replaced with parent
