Why does only sgi have DO_PG in posixmodule.c

At the top of the file it sez:

#ifdef __sgi
#define DO_PG
#endif

Guess what, these process group commands come in handy, especially if
you want to create a daemon (setsid). Actually, you can't create a
daemon without those routines. Can't we include them by default?

As a side issue, does python still print to stderr internally, no
matter what you set sys.stderr to? That is very annoying if you try to
make it shut up completely.

Thanks,
