I'm using gqlplus 1.11 on Fedora Core 5 with
oracle-instantclient-sqlplus-10.1.0.4-1 (installed from
Oracle's RPM).
Each time I start and exit gqlplus, it leaves an
sqlplus task running in the background. After running
it five times, I have five sqlplus instances floating
around. Aside from being a waste of resources, these
stray background processes sometimes hold locks on rows
and/or tables, getting in the way of normal database
operation.
This occurs with both the precompiled linux binary, and
the one I compiled myself.

True... I haven't noticed that before. Under investigation.
