New patch for the unpatched release 0.15.1.

To apply this patch, go into the directory with the source code and enter “patch -p0 < nozombie2.patch”.

(If you already applied the old patch, that's okay, ie. you can leave it that way.)

In version 0.15.0 and 0.15.1 of avatarsay, when you start a shell from the menu or you use the online help, the shell and the program info are kept as zombie processes. When you start them more than once you get several zombies.

This bug is marked as minor, since zombie processes don't need resources, and when you stop avatarsay the system takes care of them, so that they will go away automatically. But it's still a bug.
