Fixed in revision 46552ff6ac2b . 
I kind of regret having discovered such an outstanding issue this late, also 
because I think it had a considerable impact since that:

- the old implementation was *very* slow (something like 100+ times slower)
- Process.name is one of the most used properties/functions, also indirectly 
(e.g. every time __str__ is invoked)

Shame on me.
