No, there is no handler in current busybox init.c. So SIGCHLD defaults to 
SIG_DEF. Adding the line signal (SIGCHILD, SIG_IGN); in main() of init.c 
solved this problem for me. 

Have your zombies PPID = 1 ? 

In the original version the zombies get cleaned up from time to time, but 
very slow. I could not track it down, who cleans up the zombies. Had no time 
yet, will check this when I've finished my project.

Running the same application with standard init, the problem does not occure.
