Summary:  gnustep_sndd is hanging the debian build daemons

Original Submission:  When trying to autobuild packages wich depend on 
gnustep-gui0_0.8.8 for debian, gnustep_sndd hangs the debian build daemons.

Report from Ryan Murray :

>gnustep-gui0's sound server is hanging the build daemons 
>again, however :(
> 
> When building gnustep-gui package or when building 
>packages wich depend on gnustep-gui0 ?
> 
> Which depend on gnustep-gui0.  This can be caused by the
> sound daemon not
> properly backgrounding itself...
> 
> What's the status on this?  Recent gnustep needing uploads
> hung the buildds again.  I'll be excluding these packages 
> from the buildds if it isn't fixed the next time it 
> happens...

Report from James Troup :

> gnustep_sndd doesn't properly daemonize (fails to close
> fds, I guess?)... Someone should beat "how to program a 
> daemon" into gnustep upstream; this isn't the first (or
> second, or third :p) time we've had this problem with 
> gnustep daemons.
