As a simple test example, consider:
/bin/ssh-agent /bin/sleep 10
While the sleep is still running, ps shows:
PID PPID PGID WINPID TTY UID STIME COMMAND

/usr/bin/ssh-agent

One oddity is that ssh-agent is listed as a subprocess of sleep
...but this isn't a bug. ssh-agent forks, and then the parent execs the
command.
With the salient difference presumably being that the exec is done in
the parent instead of the child as usual?
