[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] ffserver: cast PID to int64_t before printing

Unfortunately, there is no portable format specifier for PID's.
Furthermore, it is not safe to assume pid_t <= 32 bit in size,
see e.g http://unix.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/AIX-L/2010-08/msg00008.html.
Right now, it is ok to assume pid_t <= 32 bit in size, but this may change in the future.
Also, this patch fixes warning due to lack of an appropriate cast from
http://fate.ffmpeg.org/report.cgi?time=20150820233505&slot=x86-opensolaris-gcc4.3.
Note that this method of handling pid_t is in line with what nginx does.
