Init script always leaves defunct netstat process

Bug Description

The oidentd init script determines the default gateway by running "netstat -nr | awk '/^0.0.0.0/{print $2;}'". For some reason this always leaves me with a defunct netstat process. For me, at least, this is avoided by replacing "netstat -nr" with "route -n". I'm not sure how that would affect machines whose default route is set with iproute2.
