Hi,

I use the Exim test suite to test configuration changes. It's worked 
reasonably well until now, except for certain tests. For example, testing 
callouts to domains with multiple MX records can fail. Also, cached lookups 
yield different log entries when the cache expires.

There's a new source of variability introduced with Exim 4.67: the log 
selector "pid". My view is that this should be disabled when running Exim 
in the test harness.

Of course, the workaround is to remove it from the configuration and put it 
back before deployment. That's not ideal, though, since the idea is to NOT 
change the configuration after testing.

Hmm, perhaps I just don't need the pid logged...
