spawnProcess() not child?

The parent / child relationship always exists.
In POSIX OSs, you may ignore SIGCHLD signal (announcing child
process death), so that in case of child process exit it will not
become zombie, rather it will be disposed on the spot.
As a side note, in Linux, there exist a system call allowing
process re-parenting, but it is intended for use in
experimenting, rather than in normal use case.
Side note II, there is no real chance of wrapping PID numbers
around in a reasonable time frame.
