I'm trying to figure out if this is somehow my fault on my s390x system,
though it seems like something that would've resulted from the conversion
to using last/nr/max args to specify the pid as Eric suggested.  But
if I pick a pid that is already in use, I get a massive set of oopses
from free_pid.  Though the oops imply it's free_pid() called as a result
of wait4 on the cloned task.

So, do you get errors on x86 when you try to eclone() a process with a
pid that is in use?  i.e.
	# nsexecwp -z 999 /bin/bash
		# id $$
			9999
		# nsexeccwp -z 999 /bin/bash
		(oops)
