Calling clone(2) with CLONE_NEWPID yields multiple processes with pid=1.

Work around this particular case by reseeding whenever pid=1, but as guenther@
notes, directly calling clone(2), and then forking to match another pid,
provides other ways to bypass new process detection on Linux.
Hopefully at some point Linux implements something like MAP_INHERIT_ZERO, and
does not invent a corresponding mechanism to subvert it.
