Default kill -0 may fail

Hi,

On a AIX 4.3.2 system, we supervise some processes by using "kill -0 pid". It
appears that sometimes "kill -0" returns an error indicating that the process no
more exists but actually the process still exists. I noticed the same problem
with a utility using the service getproc().
Is it a known problem ?

Regards.
