Problem solved!  And of course it was simple in the end.

It was the output from the minivend stop script and the minivend program
that was causing the error state.  When I redirected output to /dev/null it
took care of the problem.  Now minivend gets restarted and control is
returned properly to my web app script.

$cmd = '/minivend/mvend/bin/restart > /dev/null';
system($cmd);

Thanks to those who responded.
