Comment (by tu8367):

 Thank you.
 I am on 64bit Linux.
 I have compiled torsocks with this getpid patch. The application works
 with it. But I am not sure about the exact circumstances the application
 turned that warning on in the first place. I can not test torsocks with
 the application at that same circumstances again. Neither I can test it in
 other circumstances where I am sure it will call getpid(). The best I can
 offer is to wait a couple of months, and if the warning doesn't turned on
 again I will assume similar circumstances were there during that time, and
 the patch managed to do its work.
 I guess that your analysis of the getpid system call can't conceivebly
 being problematic, and the simple test you run, might serve as other
 considerations for the correctness of the patch.
