Fixes #81 - When the kernel informs us of LOST EVENTS, clear lastfile… #83

…[pid]

Correlating two lines seperated by a gulf of lost events results in spurious output, for example a open that was attempted on a non-existing file, but which seems to have resulted in a valid returncode.

Actually, I cleared that out wrong, there's no meaning to pid in that context. Will resubmit later.
