The top-level LDM server will terminate all child processes and then
itself if any process started as a result of an EXEC entry in the LDM
configuration-file terminates due to a severe condition (e.g. a
segmentation violation).  This is because the LDM server has no way to
determine how important the process is to the LDM system as a whole.
