	I have recently been looking at the 4.2 spooler as a replacement
to our own locally written one. I have been running it for the last few 
days to print on one of our printers.
	I noticed that the system seemed to be getting clogged up with a vast
number of zombies, all of which were children of the lpd process. Before I
spend hours looking for the problem I thoght it worth asking if anyone has
seen this before. The software is the unmodified stuff distributed with 4.2.
