I'm seeing this error happen quite a bit lately.  I get a lot of
defunct processes that just seem to hang around forever.  Eventually I
have to 'kill' them off manually.  I'm not really sure how to debug
it.  Here is the output from "ps -axf' :

25733 ?        S      0:00 /usr/local/bin/spamdyke -f
/etc/spamdyke.conf /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd
/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /bin/true
25763 ?        Z      0:00  \_ [qmail-smtpd] <defunct>
13671 ?        S      0:00 /usr/local/bin/spamdyke -f
/etc/spamdyke.conf /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd
/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /bin/true
13694 ?        Z      0:00  \_ [qmail-smtpd] <defunct>
23023 ?        S      0:00 /usr/local/bin/spamdyke -f
/etc/spamdyke.conf /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd
/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /bin/true
23046 ?        Z      0:00  \_ [qmail-smtpd] <defunct>
...

I'm am using spamdyke-3.1.6.  This is happening on my primary and one
of my secondary MX servers.

Any idea where to start troubleshooting this?  If it helps, my mail
servers are installed as Shupp Toasters
(http://www.shupp.org/toaster/).
