-1 about the PR solution to suppress ProcessLookupError in case the process is gone. In psutil I solved the “pid reused problem” by using process creation time to identify a process uniquely (on start). 
A decorator can be used to protect the sensibile methods interacting with the PID/handle (communicate(), send_signal(), terminate(), kill()) and raise an exception (maybe ProcessLooKupError(“PID has been reused”)?).
