Ok, now that I've read it, I can put my question:

Would a change so that bash spawned another bash which exited after, say, 
1900 calls to spawnXX, where-upon the first bash spawns yet another bash 
that'll last for another 1900 spawnXXs, etc. work around that problem?

That would give at least 1900*1900 spawnXX invokations. 

Or are the selectors lost for the parent as well as for the child when the
child spawns?


Right,
