It depends. If user threading under linux compatibility is still
implemented using fork(2), then you'll have a process per user thread.
In that case it doesn't matter how threading is natively implemented.

So, if fork(2) is the basis for threading, return td->td_proc->p_pid,
otherwise you probably want to return td->td_tid.
