The problem there is that while the parent process is writing leases
to the dhcpd.leases file, the child process is attempting to aggregate
them!   How do you keep the two processes being entirely synchronised
with the lease data?  Some scheme could possibly be conceived, but I
can't think of a way that is simpler than what I have implemented.
