Thanks. So I do not completely get what you are suggesting: args or kept
it the way it is? Since in the end you are saying it is ok here ;) I
mainly chose this name because I am substituting the argv variable which
is already called 'argv' with this array. That might also be the reason
why in so many locations with struct child_processe's we have the 'argv'
name: Because they initially started with the old-style NULL terminated
array.

I am fine with it either way. Just tell me what you like :)
