If you have two processes, you have two processes. You could make the
dependent process try to ping the main process or check the process table,
and die if its parent has gone (or have the two processes establish a
pipe() between themselves to accomplish something similar), but your process
needs to do its own legwork.
If this is a big deal to you, then your only other solution is threads,
depending on what your scripting language supports.
