That's the way I first implemented it, but then I thought that adding
optionally a hidden perl-level global variable was a bit kludgy.
Have you a rationale for avoiding PL_ppid ?
If I add ${^PPID}, should it be available everywhere (on platforms
that have getppid()) or only on linux-ithreads, where it's needed ?
(knowing that this variable doesn't need to have magic attached).
