And in this case, is there any reason that (since you have previously said that approximations are OK) you can't simply walk the process parent chain looking for a PID that you recognise?

Actually, that's one of the more annoying situations. Imagine this:

 process starts (and my kext knows about it)
 process forks (no exec)
 process exits
 child process creates a listener

...and I know nothing of that process, and its "parent" is pid 1.
