I'd like to keep -m! If necessary, we may want multiple -m's (-m1 -m2,
etc) with slightly different algortihms. (ie. one with
cleanupchildren, one without, one with $SIG{CHLD}=\&cleanupchildren;
etc.) to see which works on which systems. The problem is it's not an
easy bug to reproduce, it only happens occasionally. (I've never hit
it, AFAIK)
