Comment(by Bill Meek <llibkeem@…>):

 Thanks for the quick response.  Unfortunately, the kill()/waitFor...()
 patch didn't
 eliminate the defunct processes.

 Your theory is spot on, the "Error - udevinfo failed to start!" leg is the
 one
 taken.

 I've attached your patch, to be sure I modified it correctly.  Also,
 attached is a stand alone file with libudev tests that would solve???
 #6137 and
 eliminate the need for these changes.

 The program will take /sys/block/sda and find /dev/sda like udevinfo/adm
 do.

 Full disclosure, I don't know spit about udev, but would be willing to try
 modifying the program if it looks reasonable.  It did require getting
 libudev-dev,
 which I'm guessing is a drawback.
