Shred00does upstart's init ever periodically "wait" to reap zombies it might have inherited?  if not, can i force it to wait on a zombie that it inherited?14:16
Keybukupstart just calls wait() every time through the main loop15:53
Keybukand since it gets a SIGCHLD whenever it inherits a zombie, it's guaranteed to wake that up and call wait()15:54
Shred00hrm.  well, it doesn't seem to be reaping this one:17:27

Shred00oh wait.  looking at dmesg it seems that process triggered a kernel bug.  ~sigh~17:29
