Yes, why don't I just call pset_thread(proc, Qnil) when the mood strikes in
process.c? You make it sound as if pset_thread is an exposed defun.
Nine years ago, tromey in commit 6c0d5ae declaimed the notion of locking a
thread to a process. Other than raising an error when a thread tried to
accept output from a process not its own, there appears to my untrained eye
no other ramification, good or bad, of pset_thread.
