[Bug 2057944] [NEW] pidwait doesn't work. Instead behaves like pgrep

[Chris Wilson]

Public bug reported:

pidwait doesn't work at all.

Seems like pidwait was renamed in an Ubuntu patch from upstream pwait -
however the executable that is built acts as "pgrep" unless it's called
as "pwait"; this check also needs to be updated with the executable name
"pidwait".

** Affects: procps (Ubuntu)
