Setting process command name in forked process

[Steve Beck]

Hi All, SFTB.  Hope this is an appropriate question for this list:

Version 3.4.10 (of cygwin1.dll - cygcheck output attached):

I am trying to set the process command name of a forked process.  Is there a prescribed way to do this in Cygwin?

I looked for either prctl(2) from Linux or setproctitle(3) from FreeBSD but they don't link.  I've tried things like overwriting the contents of argv[0], but that didn't work either (I'm assuming it's too late by the time the /proc entry has been set up).

Thanks very much in advance,

Steve
