Then it lies.  Try this awesome little one-liner:

void main() { switch(fork()) { case -1: exit(1); case 0: _exit(0);
default: while(1); } }

Run it, and you'll see that a zombie is left.  At least it is on my box
(glibc 2.3.5).  I get this:

brian at kelnos ~ $ ./testsigchld &
[1] 17421
brian at kelnos ~ $ ps
  PID TTY          TIME CMD
17312 pts/1    00:00:00 bash
17421 pts/1    00:00:00 testsigchld
17422 pts/1    00:00:00 testsigchld <defunct>
17423 pts/1    00:00:00 ps
