+ *	required to make a process into a daemon within a single function
+ *	call.
+ *
+ * Functions:
+ *	daemon() - convert user process into a daemon.

+/* Daemonify a user process under UNIX.
+ *
+ * Abstract:
+ *	In UNIX, a user process becomes a daemon by detaching itself from
+ *	it's parent process and establishes it's own process group.  A
+ *	daemon may also detach itself from it's controlling terminal.
+ *	This is usually accomplished through fork().
+ *
+ * Paramaters:
+ *	flag - specifies daemon mode of operation:
+ *		D_KEEPALL 	keeps all files open.
+ *		D_KEEPSTDIO	keeps stdio (stdin, stdout, stderr) open.
+ *		D_KEEPNONIO	detaches from stdio, keeps other files.
+ *		D_KEEPNONE	closes all open files.
+ *
+ * Returns:
+ *	New pid of user process running as a daemon.
+ *
+ * Exceptions:
+ *	Any failure terminates the process.  No error message is possible
+ *	since the process may already be detached from user I/O.
