    Problem Text
    This test may fail on implementations because the parent id may no
    longer be valid.

    This test relies on getpgid to find out whether or not the process
    exists. However, under our implementation, a process that has gone
    zombie is no longer considered a valid process for the purpose of
    getpgid(). The only allowable manipulation for that process is a wait*
    function. Changing the getpgid (pid) to a waitpid (pid, 0, 0) will
    correctly test for the existence of the process.
