I just applied this and tested it on my PPC64 box, and it gives me the
following:

without patch:

         pst2pdf-3506  [000]   120.700910: sched_process_exec: filename=/usr/bin/pst2pdf pid=3506 old_pid=3506


With patch:

         pstopnm-4432  [001]  1490.246765: sched_process_exec: filename= pid=4432 old_pid=4432
