Description

Hello,

I've set server.max-worker to 4.

The problem is that after a 2 weeks of not restarting lighty, I get 20 running workers due to the nightly kill -HUP from logrotate.

Thank you for your quick patch, but are you sure about that code?
AFAIR wait() returns the pid of the dead process, not 0 on success.

The HUP problem is fixed though.
