djb's daemontools had a workaround for that. I've never used it though, as I've never encountered anything that misbehaved in that way. The only problem I've had was with nfsd, and that's not a real daemon anyway.

I remember that it used Unix process groups to track the double-forked daemons (cgroups-lite, lol). But it did not work reliably if the daemon itself tried to use process groups. This was not uncommon, and usually utilized for the same purpose - to track its own children.
