Suggestions:
1) augment the LD_LIBRARY_PATH instead of replacing it.
2) instead of merely backgrounding the important jobs, signal them nohup so that they continue running after you logout. Alternatively, use the nohup program to launch them, as it makes very nice logs, too.

Alternatively, you could setup intetd/xinetd/etc to run the servers. It is a _really_ classy way to do so, and very easy to setup. You would probably want to disable world's from attempting to restart zones, though, since inetd would handle it.
