you might also want to look at PoCo::Child for inspiration

Pass the param "ErrorEvent" when you instantiate the POE::Wheel::Run to trap
errors.

I get program exit codes by trapping SIGCHLD to tell when my child process
die. In your 'start' handler, add something like this:
$kernel->sig(CHLD => '__sig_child');
Then handle the __sig_child event. The program exit code is one of the
parms, as follows:
sub onSIGCHLD {
my($self, $heap, $signalname, $kidPID, $kidRC) =
@_[ OBJECT, HEAP, ARG0..ARG2 ];
