Subject: [PATCH 59/59] Fix SEGFAULT when running in a container as PID 1

When vsftpd is running in a container as PID 1, it is possible
that it will get SIGCHILD for processes, which were not directly
created by it, but by some of its children. These processes will
not be in the s_p_pid_ip_hash hash table, and thus trying to
delete the entry from the hash table in standalone.c:handle_sigchld()
will result in segmentation fault.

I can quite easily reproduce it with the upstream vsftpd and default
configuration, except for isolate=NO and isolate_network=NO being set
(it seems to me that network namespaces take a long time to create
and destroy, which hides the race condition), on a quad-core machine.
When connecting to vsftpd in a loop like this:
$ while true; do echo -en '' | nc localhost 21; done

vsftpd crashes after a couple of seconds.
