       This  program  will scan the alive PIDs, looking for which GID is unused in the supplied, inclusive range
       specified by the required arguments min-gid and max-gid. Upon finding one, it will add the GID to its own
       supplementary group list, and then scan the PIDs again expecting to find only itself using the GID. If no
       collision has occurred, the program exits, otherwise it retries.

gidd_alloc will exit with a status value of 0 (zero) upon success, and it will  exit  with  the  value  1
       (one) upon failure.

       This is a program only available for the Linux ports of HTCondor.
