Hobbit Generating Defunct Processes



I have Hobbit running on a IBM P6 lpar, with AIX 5.3 installed.   It seems 
about every 3-4 minutes a 'defunct' process is started by hobbit.  I have 
tried uninstalling and re-installing Hobbit, and rebooting the server. The 
defunct processes are still being generated.  Does anyone have any idea on 
what is causing this?  Thanks for your help.
Here's a sample of the ps output:
