Under a threading infrastructure, PIDs have no meaning.  So, assuming
that a concept of session IDs is used to replace how we internally
track each thread for the SQL interface, and assuming that this is 8
byte wide, then the PID wraparound concerns would be entirely gone.
This relies on three ifs.
