I guess the obvious, brute force solution is:

--- iws.orig    2016-03-18 14:35:21.206449824 -0700
+++ iws 2016-03-18 14:33:39.770357734 -0700

+  su -m www -c "exec ${forever} start -a -l ${HOME}/forever.log -o ${HOME}/output.log -e ${HOME}/error.log -p /var/run/forever ${script}" &

but if anyone has something more elegant, I'd be grateful to learn of it.
