ahh... i see what the problem is.

obexapp_server_request_get_folder_object() wants to call
getpwuid()/getgrgid() to put user/group name into xml, but, obviously,
it can not. i guess this is the case where "less is more" :) i will
fix this.

yeah, this was me being too lazy :) i just wanted to make sure child
gets completely detached no matter how parent is running :) i will fix
it too
