wmiirc event loop doesn't die when spawning a new one

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
[[ start wmii, open a terminal ]]
$ pgrep -f 'wmiir read /event'
31039
$ wmiir xwrite /ctl 'spawn /etc/wmii-hg/wmiirc'
$ pgrep -f 'wmiir read /event'
31039
31214
$ wmiir xwrite /ctl 'spawn /etc/wmii-hg/wmiirc'
$ pgrep -f 'wmiir read /event'
31039
31214
31355
$ wmiir xwrite /ctl quit
[[ X exits, but wmii processes are still running ]]

Why doesn't the the previous wmiirc event loop die?

What version of the product are you using (wmii -v)? On what operating
system?
wmii-hg2592, libixp-hg116, Arch Linux x86_64, Linux 2.6.30.9, xorg-server 1.7.1

That's strange. It only happens to wmiircs spawned by wmii, not those started 
from
the commandline. I can confirm that they are calling exit, and the event loop 
stops,
when the new copy is spawned, but somehow the instance of wmiir (and its parent
wmiirc process) remains.
