[PATCH] 2.4.9 Make thread group id visible in /proc/<pid>/status

[Dave McCracken]

It would be useful in many contexts to be able to see the thread group id. 
This would make it easier to identify tasks that are part of a 
multi-threaded process, at least for those that are using pthreads.  This 
patch adds a TGid field to the status file.  This will not break ps, since 
ps skips any field in status that it doesn't understand.

Patch is below.
