                               sc_process.h by Stan Liao, and the now-defunct
                               sc_process_b.h by Stan Liao and Martin
                               Janssen, all of Synopsys, Inc., It also contains
                               code from the original sc_process_b.h by 
                               Andy Goodrich of Forte Design Systems and

//  Torsten Maehne: eliminate unused argument warning.
//
// Revision 1.35  2011/08/26 20:46:10  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: moved the modification log to the end of the file to
//  eliminate source line number skew when check-ins are done.

//  (1) Downgrade error to warning for re-kills of processes.
//  (2) Add process name to process messages.
//  (3) drop some superfluous colons in messages.
//
// Revision 1.31  2011/04/13 02:44:26  acg
//  Andy Goodrich: added m_unwinding flag in place of THROW_NOW because the
//  throw status will be set back to THROW_*_RESET if reset is active and
//  the check for an unwind being complete was expecting THROW_NONE as the
//  clearing of THROW_NOW.
