it's only missing because there (probably) isn't a clean way to do it across
platforms. you could probably quite easily do it with a libc call in linux,
but could you use that same code to do it in a win32 or os/2 or even BSD
environment without a lot of headaches? probably not.

how badly do you need this functionality?
