I can't reproduce this one either. It may be related to the other issue.
We'll have to check why the master-worker model works so differently on
FreeBSD. It may be a small mistake somewhere or something behaving
differently that we have overlooked. But clearly the issue with listening
FDs not responding after the fork is *very* strange and I suspect it's only
the visible part of something misbehaving.

Thanks for the heads-up, now I understand better you use case.

Great.

For now I don't think so. And I wish them to stay on something sane for
as long as they can!

Yep, that's the idea!

Thanks!
