It get into zombie state because lighttpd doesn't call wait(2) for it.

  • Status changed from Reopened to Invalid
  • Target version deleted (1.5.0)
  • Patch available set to No

lighttpd calls waitpid if the backend doesn't respond to a connect; and i don't see a problem with having zombies. If you don't want them, spawn them via daemontools/runit + spawn-fcgi (as you need to do in 1.5 anyway, and i guess that just the target version was wrong).
