Ok, I have taken a closer look, and believe that the report was false.  The
submitter used RLIMIT_NPROC to limit the amount of processes, but I think
that included some extra processes running somewhere under the same user id. 
I have done some tests and did not see any zombies left over (it would have
surprised me given the new code), and thus I think this is fixed.

If you still see any problems with current CVS, let me know please.

Thanks,
Marcus
