I amended my initial report to this list by mentioning I am using 
MooseX::Daemonize 0.13. 

Not necessarily related but I have noticed another (more minor) problem.
It seems by the time starman starts the @ARGV has either been clobbered
or is not being passed correctly to starman.  Looking at the starman
code the $0 should be set to "starman master @ARGV" or "starman worker
@ARGV", but instead it's just "starman master" or "starman worker".
