One way to prevent this is have the "child" processes detect that STDIN closed, 
and when that happens they commit suicide.  As stdin is inherited from the 
parent as a pipe, it closes when the parent process closes it (which it would 
never do, normally), or when the parent dies.  Orphans cause nothing but 
trouble in our society, and would be best served to kill themselves!  (What a 
great quote to get me in trouble when taken out of context!)
