I think what this bug really says is: "when xscreensaver-demo forks xscreensaver, and then xscreensaver-demo's controlling terminal and stdin/stdout go away, something bad happens to xscreensaver".

However, I can't reproduce that.

If any of you can reproduce it, perhaps it would fix it to change demo- Gtk.c from

  if (system ("xscreensaver -nosplash &") < 0)

to

if (system ("xscreensaver -nosplash </dev/null >/dev/null 2>&1 &") < 0)

Though I'd rather not do that if we don't have to, because it just seems wrong...
