Uhm, Thunar never forked itself into the background, atleast not the
upstream version. The --daemon command line option simply keeps Thunar
running even if the last window is closed (for the trash support).
--enable-debug=full doesn't change anything wrt file system monitoring.
Dunno what's going on there.
