AFAIK, there's no such thing as a 42000 PID; PIDs on Linux are limited

See my reply to Mark; this is no longer true in general these days.


It wasn't true even before.  Other old systems such as mips-irix also
had 64bit PIDs, for instance, or Tru64.


AFAIK, neither Irix nor Tru64 use the Linux kernel :-)  If we step out
of Linux, then my assertion above would be false even for Windows.
