Eh, I forgot to add some more notes...

Indentation.

And anyway, what about implementing the second half of this function as
follows:

#ifdef __linux__
    if (binpath) {
        char *procpath = NULL;

        if (virAsprintf(&procpath, "/proc/%d/exe", *pid) < 0 ||
            !virFileLinkPointsTo(procpath, binpath))
            *pid = -1;
        VIR_FREE(procpath);
    }
#endif

Building procpath makes little sense on non-linux and checking binpath first
allows callers to use *IfAlive for checking pid liveliness without binpath
checks (in case any caller wants to do so) and allows us to move procpath
declaration into the same ifdef block :-)

I think we should also document that both *IfAlive functions return -errno if
the pid file cannot be read or doesn't contain integer value. If it contains a
number but such process is not running or doesn't correspond to binpath, the
return value is 0 but pid is -1.
