    Please note: Most of this module is not compatible with Hugs.

    Messages from this module are logged under @System.Daemon@.  See
    'System.Log.Logger' for details.

    Based on background
    from <http://www.erlenstar.demon.co.uk/unix/faq_2.html#SEC16> and

    {- | Detach the process from a controlling terminal and run it in the
    background, handling it with standard Unix deamon semantics.

    After running this, please note the following side-effects:

     * The PID of the running process will change

     * stdin, stdout, and stderr will not work (they'll be set to
       \/dev\/null)

     * CWD will be changed to \/

    I /highly/ suggest running this function before starting any threads.

    Note that this is not intended for a daemon invoked from inetd(1).
