Your supervised program isn't ucspilogd, it's s6-ipcserver.
s6-ipcserver spawns ucspilogd instances when it's getting a connection on
/dev/log. s6-ipcserver dies when you kill the service; its ucspilogd children
do not get killed.

Yes. It just means that something has a syslog() connection open. The
ucspilogd process you're seeing just hasn't noticed yet that its logger is
dead because its client hasn't sent any data since the services were
stopped. It will die next time its client tries sending a log line.
Sigh. It may lose a log line. I could fix that by making ucspilogd
asynchronous (it's one of the very few synchronous programs I have left,
I thought it was simple enough that synchronous could work, but apparently
I was wrong and synchronous sucks in ALL cases). But honestly, it's syslog,
so I don't really care.
