I'm seeing slons die with done; and exit(0) a minute or two after they
start up.  While they are up they seem to work correctly but they exit
pretty quickly.

Why would they exit(0)??

In the pg log file in the next second, I'm seeing "Unexpected EOF on client connection".
I think this is a result of the slons stopping rather than a cause
because of the timing.  But the timing is close.

This is 7.4.x with slony 1.1.0.  Slons are running on a separate machine.

Any ideas how to keep the slons alive longer or why they die so often?
