Hi Ludo, thanks for the troubleshooting help. Looks like I'm running 0.10.4:

jfred@terracard ~$ cat /proc/1/cmdline | xargs -0
/gnu/store/bhynhk0c6ssq3fqqc59fvhxjzwywsjbb-guile-3.0.9/bin/guile 
--no-auto-compile 
/gnu/store/39li5qpiaj1lx89xgahlbgvfnjhpcpwg-shepherd-0.10.4/bin/shepherd 
--config /gnu/store/hfyri6ygfdjq4w3nkha2ypa2k98hhfxj-shepherd.conf

I see now that 0.10.5 was released a few weeks ago, does that have a fix that 
could be related?
