+  Android 10 and later also prohibit Emacs itself from running
+executables inside the app data directory, obstensibly for security
+readers.  On these systems, Emacs normally applies a workaround;
+however, this workaround requires running all sub-processes through
+another subprocess which implements an executable loader and applies
+process tracing to all its children, which may prove to be problematic
+for various different reasons.  In that case, the workaround can be
+disabled by changing the variable @code{android-use-exec-loader} to
+@code{nil}.
+
+  When this workaround is in effect, process IDs retrieved through the
+@code{process-id} function will be that of the executable loader
+process; its child will belong to the same process group as the
+loader.  As a result, @code{interrupt-process}, and other related
+functions will work correctly, but using the process ID returned by
+@code{process-id} for other purposes will not.
