Sorry about the Macabre, but that's essentially what I want: It seems 
that children of my process (created using fork) get reparanted to init 
when my process dies unexpectedly. I'd like to have them all die on the 
spot instead (not wait for them to finish - kill them on the spot). How 
do I do this?

I assume it would have to do with a big begin/rescue/end block around 
the whole app...
