Personally, I see nothing wrong with a fatal error exit directly from the

procps_fatal_unmounted()
Yes, that's better as its very clear what you're doing here.

In summary, I'm pretty happy with this new pids API state. But what I need
are some other opinions. So, after pushing these changes, why not try your
hand at converting the w program.
The pwdx changes look cleaner. I'll have a crack at w.
