There is a lot of discussion on the ssh lists about ssh and processes
with open files and the so called hang-on-exit behavior.  IMNHO this
is due to poorly written daemon software which is not handling stdin,
stdout, stderr file properly.  The daemon command should do this
itself.  But some need help.  I would file a bug report against the
daemon with the problem.
