Can some explain me why 0 is expected? SystemExec called with true as second parameter should only return -1 in case of an error (logged to syslog) or the status of waitpid() in case of success. (see thread.c) Since the direct child instantly does exit(0), I assumed that status should also be 0. On the other hand, the man page of waitpid mentions lots of macros to inspect the status return of waitpid. Maybe checking on these helps here.
