           Summary: slon  can get into a state where it spins with "child

With 2.0.5 I've seen slon get into a state where it generates many megabytes
per second of log messages of the form

2010-10-21 18:52:32 CUTCONFIG slon: child terminated status: 589833; pid: -1,
current worker pid: 639202
2010-10-21 18:52:32 CUTCONFIG slon: child terminated status: 589833; pid: -1,
current worker pid: 639202

there does not appear to be a working slon running just the watchdog.
I had to send a kill -9 to the slon process to get it to stop.

It is possible that this was caused by some abnormal event ie dropping the
databases underneath slon but I'm not able to confirm that coincided with slon
getting into that state.

Note this was observed on AIX.
