Its not really forking - i guess there happens to much of script 
beforehand so the script itself is recognized as action.

Anyway problem is solved allready - i stuffed it into an array and could 
get the quoting right by this. Those i could use exec for the daemon, 
those the PID of script is equal to the daemon. Handing over Variables 
from pre-start and only do

exec vdr $VAR1 $VAR2 $VAR3

where these are coming from pre-start script ... end script might be 
preferable for this cases.
