Johann Tonsing added the comment:

Thanks for explaining.

(FWIW I reported this because several examples / recipes I saw elsewhere 
on the net used os._exit() in the parent.  Perhaps they did this because 
they don't want to disrupt resources like file descriptors which the 
child has inherited or something.)
