Currently, setsid(0) always return 1, while it should return the sid of the calling process. Here is a proposed patch:
I have no particular objection, but what is the standard that specifies its return value this way?
[Looks like my mail wasn't sent to bug-hurd, so I'm resending - sorry if you receive it twice] I think Samuel meant getsid(0). setsid() does not take any argument and his patch modifies getsid() anyway. XPG4 specifies that getsid(0) should return the process group ID of the process that is the session leader of the calling process. That's how session ID are defined in GNU/Hurd and in any other operating system I know (at least in GNU/Linux, *BSD and Solaris).
