Though I have not tried this, there is an si_pid field
(and other fields you might be interested in) in
struct siginfo.  If you use a POSIX signal handler
(see sigaction(2)), a pointer to a struct siginfo is
the 2nd argument to your signal handler.

See <sys/signal.h> for the definition of struct siginfo.
