+Unlike `waitpid`, `virProcessWait` only returns -1 (error) or 0
+(success), so comparing that to `pid` will always be false and the
+parent will report failure with:
+
+error : main:851 : Failed to fork as daemon: No such file or directory
+
+even though the grandchild process is succesfully running. Note that the
+errno message is misleading: it was last set when trying to find a
+restart state file.
