Fix snafu in run_program(). Patch from Robert Vogelgesang.
This patch splits out the major part of reap_kids() into a new function, forget_child(), and calls this new function instead of reap_kids() in run_program(), after having waitpid()'ed for a child. Rationale: The waitpid() at the start of reap_kids() has no chance to get the PID of the child already waited for in run_program(). As a consequence, the PID of that child will stay in the list of all children until the end of the pppd process, which is bad, because pppd will then try to kill -TERM that PID (and might kill some innocent third party at this point).
