Looks like older procps versions (pgrep 3.3.17 at least) interpret an
uptime of less than 1 seconds as an error condition. This seems to be
fixed in 4.x, but we probably shouldn't rely on that.

I guess I'll just add a "sleep 1" into start.sh.

Sure, will remove that.

Hah, yes, lets use Exception("...") here instead.
