As I said before, you should not rely on getpid() to work.
You should always use getsockaddr(2) to get your local address.
Should that be getsockname(2)? Anyways, I now understand the issues.
As it turns out, we were actually already calling getsockname() a bit
earlier in the code path, so we can just use the "pid" value from there.
