From:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/apr/apr/tags/1.0.0/include/apr_thread_proc.h
APR_KILL_NEVER // process is never sent any signals
APR_KILL_ALWAYS // process is sent SIGKILL on apr_pool_t cleanup
APR_KILL_AFTER_TIMEOUT // SIGTERM, wait 3 seconds, SIGKILL
APR_JUST_WAIT // wait forever for the process to complete
APR_KILL_ONLY_ONCE // send SIGTERM and then wait
Restoring the apr_pool_note_subprocess and using APR_KILL_NEVER would
allow the children to be reaped provided they exit before pool cleanup.
However, that would likely not eliminate the zombie problem in Xcode
as pool cleanup probably happens faster than ssh cleanup and exit in
some cases. How about using APR_KILL_AFTER_TIMEOUT or
APR_KILL_ONLY_ONCE (or even APR_JUST_WAIT) ?
