Speaking of which, my ps broke yesterday. Strangely enough, I
installed 2.0.4 two days ago and then ps broke.

# ps auxf
USER PID %CPU %MEM SIZE RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND
root 108 0.0 0.9 760 280 2 S 03:00 0:00 /etc/agetty
38400 tty2
root 7902 0.0 1.2 824 396 ? S 11:13 0:00
/usr/sbin/mgetty.new ttyS0
Segmentation fault
#

It's the -f flag that causes it. Believe me, the day I installed
2.0.4, I did plenty of ps auxf and they worked fine. But yesterday
evening, shrug, it stopped.

I tried recompiling (procps-1.01, btw) to no avail.
