*
* Waits for a child process to exit, returns its process id, and
* sets <code>$?</code> to a <code>Process::Status</code> object
* containing information on that process. Which child it waits on
* depends on the value of _pid_:
*
* > 0:: Waits for the child whose process ID equals _pid_.
*
* 0:: Waits for any child whose process group ID equals that of the
* calling process.
*
* -1:: Waits for any child process (the default if no _pid_ is
* given).
*
* < -1:: Waits for any child whose process group ID equals the absolute
* value of _pid_.
*
* The _flags_ argument may be a logical or of the flag values
* <code>Process::WNOHANG</code> (do not block if no child available)
* or <code>Process::WUNTRACED</code> (return stopped children that
* haven't been reported). Not all flags are available on all
* platforms, but a flag value of zero will work on all platforms.
*
* Calling this method raises a <code>SystemError</code> if there are
* no child processes. Not available on all platforms.
