Name release issue

[Antoine Aubert]

Hello,

I'm facing an issue on releasing well known names.

* Process A, "org.bar.Foo" dbus well known name

* Process B, spawn by process A with system() call. (i.e.
system("/etc/init.d/B start), using double fork daemonize)

The spawned process (B) inherits parent fd's (A), therefore when the
parent (A) is killed, dbus doesn't release well known names, until child
(B) is killed. (seen on org.freedesktop.DBus.ListNames) in addition,
org.freedesktop.DBus.GetConnectionUnixProcessID ("org.bar.Foo") returns
old (A) PID.

Is There a way to avoid this behaviour ?

Thx for your help.
