# once it's idle again.  In addition, the parent sends PF_PING_ORDER
# periodically to ping the child processes.  Very simple protocol.  Note that
# the $pid values are packed into 4 bytes so that the buffers are always of a
# known length; if you need to transfer longer data, assign a new protocol verb
# (the first char) and use the length of the following data buffer as the
