# 199458 17-Nov-2009 jilles

Add pwait utility, which waits for any process to terminate.

This is similar to the Solaris utility of the same name.

Some use cases:
* rc.subr's wait_for_pids
* interactive use, e.g. to shut down the computer when some task is done
even if the task is already running
