Research direction

Start by reading socketserver.ForkingMixIn and the behavior described in Issue #55318, referenced as Issue11109 in the migrated text. Add a test covering zombie cleanup and verifying that all zombies are reaped in one pass; the test should fail for the reported behavior and pass once it is covered.
