Comment (by nbruin):

 I have tried:
 {{{
 $ sage -sh easy_install setproctitle
 }}}
 after which I can do:
 {{{
 sage: import setproctitle
 sage: setproctitle.setproctitle("mysage")
 }}}
 which changes both `/proc/PID/stat` and `/proc/PID/cmdline` (it truncates
 the name to 15 characters for what `stat` gets set to), i.e., both
 `killall` and `killall -e` work.

 This test was on linux, but [https://pypi.python.org/pypi/setproctitle/]
 claims it works on
 {{{
     GNU/Linux
     BSD
     MacOS X
     Windows
 }}}
 so on SunOS we should probably make it a NoOp
