  You're probably right that it is the issue! (codes was a static
variable in the first iteration; static variables do not need to be
0-initialized. But then I reworked the code, made codes an automatic
variable, and failed to initialize it to zero. And that is why relying
on magic features is a bad thing, and I should stop doing this out of
laziness.)

  I fixed it in the latest git of s6; if you prefer numbered releases,
I'm working on a bigger release (with some interface changes and a
major version bump) that should happen before the end of the year, but
not right now ^^'

  Please try the fixed version. If you don't want to use the git head,
you can apply the very simple diff:
  
https://git.skarnet.org/cgi-bin/cgit.cgi/s6/diff/src/supervision/s6-permafailon.c

  If that version doesn't solve your problem, then I'll investigate
further.

  Thanks for the report!
