I'm not sure how cross-platform it is, but at least on Linux, you can
use /proc/self as an alias for "/proc/"+os.getpid() - worth a try,
might make your code a bit easier to read.

It's documented as useful when you don't know the PID yet (eg telling
a process to read the file /proc/self/fd/0 to force it to use stdin).
So I'm confident enough to recommend testing it. :)
