Oops, this one is fixed by b6b95685d0b478698d648f13afd927b1e1700d99.
It’s a regression introduced when switching to the Shepherd 0.8.1.

The nginx issue may be different.  The Shepherd 0.8.0 included fixes
that should help for multi-process services like nginx.  Let me know if
it happens again.

Thanks for reporting the issue… and apologies for grumpily pushing you
to do so on IRC.  It’s a positive outcome at any rate!
