The -fork with no arguments looks to be a bug in the srcds_run script. I just 
spotted that the other day. There is a test in the script

if [ -z "$NUMFORKS" ]; then
        HL_CMD = "$HL_CMD -fork $NUMFORKS"
fi

This should be -n "$NUMFORKS"

The -fork with no numeric argument does nothing. It will effectively get 
ignored (with no warning).

I'm confused about your answer re: fork.  Why is it in your command line
with no number?  It's certainly not going to do anything positive like that!
