At first glance the library appears to close all open files, with an option to exclude some specific file descriptors (that is, you need to pass a list of files that shouldn't be closed). That makes it a lot harder to do some initialization before daemonizing. I prefer to perform at least some initialization early in program startup to be able to give sensible error messages. I've had too many initscripts that claimed to have started a daemon sucessfully, only to have that daemon stop right away because it noticed a problem right after it detached itself.
