Comment:

 The discussion thread has survived for two weeks on the mailing list. The
 patches have been modified according to Simon's suggestion except the name
 {{{newProcess[For]}}}. Please review attachment:0001-Change-the-POSIX-
 process-group-API.-trac-5167.patch attachment:0002-Test-cases-for-the-new-
 process-group-API.patch (and ignore other patch files).

 PS: I need help in the documentation since I do not speak English. Please
 feel free to modify/improve the descriptions of functions.
