Remove environment variable from /proc/$pid/environ under Linux
/* Demonstrate how to remove an environment variable from /proc/$pid/environ,
under Linux.
This pseudo file is accessible by other processes with sufficient privileges
(i.e. same user or root) and exposes the original environment vector.
Removing sensitive variables from it can be part of a defense in depth
strategy (i.e. to make it harder for a casual attacker to access it).

Fix deadlock, busy waiting and comments in futex example from http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/futex.2.html
/* futex_demo.c
Usage: futex_demo [nloops]
(Default: 5)
Demonstrate the use of futexes in a program where parent and child
use a pair of futexes located inside a shared anonymous mapping to
synchronize access to a shared resource: the terminal. The two
processes each write 'num-loops' messages to the terminal and employ
a synchronization protocol that ensures that they alternate in
