Slackware seems to have this patch, while it is not in use(?) Well,
the upstream procps-ng allows one to disable warnings if that is
wanted. After all having this sort of 'feature' does not cost much,
while lacking it might annoy someone.
A patch from Slackware.

Conflicts:
proc/ksym.c
Previously the version of libproc always tracked the version of procps.
This doesn't work when other non-procps programs link to the library as
they are always playing catch up.
This change makes the library version independent of the procps version.
It will only be incremented when needed.
There were numerous ps memory allocation inconsistencies.
Some were checked for failure and others were not.
The program was modified to utilize the library memory
rouines which are consistent in dealing with errors.
(a few changes simply removed trailing whitespace)
The library file version string is taken from configure.ac AC_INIT.

many fields in section 3a. DESCRIPTIONS
This will revert change at Oct 2002 when autotools support was
removed.
Unlike before the package developers are expected to use
./autogen.sh to generate ./configure script, and run make after
that. The build system is also able to create, with make dist, a
tar ball release which compiles correctly, and has files which
seemed to be important to have.
The patch removes few unnecessary files, but no everything. Files
procps.lsm and procps.spec in git repository are useless as is,
but I left them lying around for someone who can make more
justified call about removal of them.
Last, but not least package version number is set 3.3.0 to
distinct this procps from the sourceforge's upstream procps.
Please notice that libproc relese is kept as 3.2.8.

Library Changes
. added PROC_EDITCMDLCVT flag
. added an internal (static) fill_cmdline_cvt function:
- reads and "escapes" /proc/#/cmdline
- returns result as a single string in a single vector
- callers are guaranteed a cmdline (no more NULL)
. added vectorize_this_str function, exploited by
fill_cgroup_cvt, fill_cmdline_cvt
. generalized read_cmdline function as read_unvectored, now
exploited by fill_cgroup_cvt, fill_cmdline_cvt, read_cmdline
( cgroup and cmdline no longer need be converted to string )
( vectors before being transformed to final representation )
. fixed bug regarding skipped group numbers (when enabled)
. escape_str made responsible for all single byte translation
with distinction between control chars + other unprintable
. added escaped_copy function for already escaped strings
. reorganized parts of proc_t to restore formatting standards
( displacement changes shouldn't matter with new version # )
. former ZAP_SUSEONLY #define now OOMEM_ENABLE
. added to library.map: escaped_copy; read_cmdline
Top Program Changes
. exploited the new PROC_EDITCMDLCVT provision
. eliminated now obsolete #include "proc/escape.h"
. changed the P_WCH display format if no kernel symbol table
. fixed very old bug in lflgs for out-of-view sort fields
. former ZAP_SUSEONLY #define now OOMEM_ENABLE
Ps Program Changes
. exploited the new PROC_EDITCMDLCVT provision
. exploited the new escaped_copy function
. consolidated pr_args and pr_comm into pr_argcom

Read the time of system boot from /proc/stat (entry: btime) instead
of computing it as the difference between the current time and the
uptime. This is the only way to get a consistent result which won't
possibly change from one run to the next.
The problems with the original code were:
* Both the current time and the uptime are rounded down to the second,
but the system doesn't boot on an integer second value so they do not
tick at the same moment. Thus, the rounding errors can cause a one
second difference from one run to the next.
* We can't read the uptime and the current time at the exact same moment
anyway, so the time difference we compute is bound to be inaccurate.
