Don't close stdin in daemonize() but dup2 /dev/null instead.  Otherwise, fd 0
gets reused later:

  [root@idol ~]# ls -lav /proc/`pgrep xenstored`/fd
  total 0
  dr-x------ 2 root root  0 Feb 28 11:02 .
  dr-xr-xr-x 9 root root  0 Feb 27 15:59 ..
  lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Feb 28 11:02 0 -> /dev/xen/evtchn
  l-wx------ 1 root root 64 Feb 28 11:02 1 -> /dev/null
  l-wx------ 1 root root 64 Feb 28 11:02 2 -> /dev/null
  lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Feb 28 11:02 3 -> /dev/xen/privcmd
  ...
