Testing uncovered a couple of further issues so I am cancelling this
VOTE and a RC4 will follow shortly.

The following is intended as a helper and refresher for reviewers.
Validating a release candidate
==============================
These guidelines are NOT complete.
Requirements: Git, Java, and Maven.
You can validate a release from a release candidate (RC) tag as follows.
1a) Download and decompress the source archive from:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/daemon/1.6.0-RC3/source
1b) Check out the RC tag from git (optional)
This is optional, as a reviewer must at least check source distributions.
git clone https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/commons-daemon.git --
branch commons-daemon-1.6.0-RC3 commons-daemon-1.6.0-RC3
cd commons-daemon-1.6.0-RC3
2) Checking the build
All components should include a default Maven goal, such that you can
run 'mvn' from the command line by itself.
2) Check Apache licenses
This step is not required if the site includes a RAT report page, which
you then must check.
This check should be included in the default Maven build, but you can
check it with:
mvn apache-rat:check
3) Check binary compatibility
This step is not required if the site includes a JApiCmp report page,
which you then must check.
This check should be included in the default Maven build, but you can
check it with:
mvn verify -DskipTests -P japicmp japicmp:cmp
4) Build the package
This check should be included in the default Maven build, but you can
check it with:
mvn -V clean package
You can record the Maven and Java version produced by -V in your VOTE
reply.
To gather OS information from a command line:
Windows: ver
Linux: uname -a
4b) Check reproducibility
To check that a build is reproducible, run:
mvn clean verify artifact:compare -DskipTests -Dreference.repo=https://
repository.apache.org/content/repositories/staging/ '-
Dbuildinfo.ignore=*/*.spdx.json'
Note that this excludes SPDX files from the check.
5) Build the site for a single module project
Note: Some plugins require the components to be installed instead of
packaged.
mvn site
Check the site reports in:
- Windows: target\site\index.html
- Linux: target/site/index.html
6) Build the site for a multi-module project
mvn site
mvn site:stage
Check the site reports in:
- Windows: target\site\index.html
- Linux: target/site/index.html
Note that the project reports are created for each module.
Modules can be accessed using the 'Project Modules' link under
the 'Project Information' menu (see <path-to-site>/modules.html).
