Hmmm... Must be something specific to my configuration, then.
I'm thinking x86_64, or the fact that I connect through 2 xchat
clients all the time.  Or irssi-style logging.

I've scratch-built a candidate RPM for you to try:

  http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=336094

It includes both ctrlproxy-3.0.5 and the daemonization work.
I'm also cc'ing dwmw2 because I know he uses ctrlproxy and
may like to test this new version.

Unfortunately, I could never catch ctrlproxy 3.0.3 crashing
when I had enabled coredumps with ulimit.  Since I upgraded
to 3.0.5, I've not yet seen another crash.
