Synopsis: Children of ypserv don't necessarily go away.

State-Changed-Why: 

Grrr. Okay, put another 'stupid' sticker next to my name. I dealt with this
by having ypproc_all_2_svc() exit when it's done instead of return to the
dispatcher. I left some of the sanity tests in though because I'm paranoid, 
and they shouldn't hurt. The test for 'forked' is removed. The test for
'am I the parent or a child' is not. If the condition shows up again, a
warning message should be logged.                                    

Note that I tried to duplicate the failure condition myself many times,
but no matter how hard I tried to hit the server it would never produce
a bogus child process while I was looking at it. Instead it would always
happen during the night, and not at any predictable interval.
