[vbox-dev] VirtualBox DHCPServer process showing as <defunct>

I've got the problem that after a system reboot, my VirtualBox DHCP server shows as <defunct> in the process list. It works fine right after creation, but after reboot, it always goes into defunct state. Then my VM does not get any addresses from DHCP anymore. Anyone ever had this before? Are the servers not supposed to be persistent across reboots? I'm creating these as normal user rather than as root - is that a problem? I'm using the Python API to create/remove DHCP servers.
