This is a bug in perl's forks.pm module. I posted about this in August
along with a patch:

http://www.renaissoft.com/cgi-bin/mailman/private/maia-users/2015-August/016668.html

The downside is that you may need to re-apply the patch every time you
upgrade perl. However, I think it's fixed in perl 5.20.3 -- at least, I
did not need to reapply the patch after upgrading on FreeBSD 10.2.
