Startup of daemon process

Hi
whenn running a process as a daemon with fork() and setsid() the startup code in
crt0 is not executed properly. A number of calls (getpwent(), gethostbyname()) fail
after becoming a daemon since some internal data structures are not initialized.
Will this be fixed in b19?
Thanks
Walter Jenny
