[Catalyst-dev] Patch for app_server.pl to daemonise

[Ton Voon]

Hi!

Please find a patch attached. It amends the Helper.pm scripts so that  
app_server.pl includes options to daemonise the HTTP engine. I've had  
to use -pidfile as the option (since -p is already used for the port)  
and -background and -b for the daemonise (since -d is already used  
for debug).

The patch to HTTP.pm is similar to the code used in FastCGI.pm to  
write the pidfile and fork and close file descriptors.

Since our app is used internally at client sites, with a relatively  
small number of hits, the development server (behind an apache proxy)  
is simpler to setup than a fastcgi server.
