Did you follow the later messages in this discusison thread?

I made an error in not including all quotes use din catalina.sh in my
simpl test script. So when using the correct scripts, the eval did *not*
leave a copy of the shel process hanging around.

If you think there is a problem, you can discuss the technical details
here, and if the list doesn't find a solution for you, you can open a bug.
