As with so many other things in Cygwin, what you see is what you get
from the underlying Windows API that we're using. If certain processes
aren't showing up when we say "give me all of your processes", then they
aren't being displayed.
The exception is PID 0. The zero pid is special to cygwin so it can't
be displayed due to a cygwin limitation.

The functionality you see now is all that I plan on providing.
Patches are, as always, gratefully accepted, however.
