Identifying helper kids is a good idea in general, but I would very much
prefer that we at least understand what the true problem is here before
we mask it away. Your second January 31, 2013 email on squid-users is a
good summary of what needs to be investigated. Please do not suppress
the warning until we know why it happens and are certain that hiding it
is the best way forward.

The new process kind ID should be 8. Some of these IDs can be combined
(e.g., the same process can be Master and Worker) so we want to keep
them increasing using powers of two.
