Cpurc on sources disables notes for a few processes including
listen(8) – to save them from being killed when system runs out of
memory. This, however, has a side effect: spawned services like
sshserve inherit the bits from listen, thus missing notes about rc
exits and waiting forever, causing the processes to accumulate.
To stop them to accumulate immediately, enable notes for listen by
running as hostowner:
kill listen | awk -F'>' '{print "chmod u+w", $2}' | rc -v
Then remove listen from /bin/cpurc:/^dontkill line.
