Hello, Upon termination, the parent process will call parent_shutdown() which will in turn call mproc_clear() to properly terminate IPC with child processes.
In mproc_clear(), event_del() is called but a check is lacking to ensure event_add() was called prior to this. On OpenBSD, this doesn’t seem to cause any issue but on other systems with a different libevent, calling event_del() without a matching event_add() either causes a runtime warning or a crash upon exit.
