And with a flourish, the answer is in the same thread: ta-da!

It can happen with sendmail & postfix, as far as I can remember. Any
process, in fact, that is exec()'d by Apache can inherit this problem if
the Apache process which spawned the subprocess goes away in the
meantime. I used to see this quite a lot with duff PHP scripts in a
shared hosting environment where Apache got an 'apachectl graceful' once
an hour.
