I am running shepherd as a userspace service manager on an alien distro. Occassionally (often enough as to cause concern), Shepherd is crashing. I am unable to narrow down a cause, but anecdotally, it seems to happen more often when a service it's managing fails repeatedly and is disabled.
I'm running `strace` against the Shepherd process in an attempt to submit a better bug report, but this is all I have for now. Maybe others have also seen this behavior. -- Katherine
