Sometimes a "ps" gives me output similar to this
PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND
59 v06 SW 0:00 (agetty)
61 s03 SW 0:00 (agetty)ogin)
83 pp0 SW 0:01 (bash)
97 pp1 S 0:00 -bash
170 pp2 SW 0:00 (bash)
1907 pp0 S 0:00 (mkall)ger)
1908 pp0 S 0:00 (mkall)
2158 pp1 D 0:01 du -s elf
2177 pp3 R 0:00 ps
i.e. some commands (swapped out ones) show up as
"(agetty)ogin)" instead of the correct "(agetty)" probably somewhere
the trailing \0 is lost... YES, its a security risk (grin)..
no, but its very unpleasant.
