i agree.  i would have to give it some thought.  keeping track of the
pgrp leader's uid/pid/start_time would probably be enough.  i suppose
its possible to get the same uid/pid/start_time twice within the duration
of your afs credentials (jumpy clocks etc).  this doesnt strike me as a
big problem--you might get your old credentials.
