Some inconsistencies have emerged during development
of support for these relatively new proc_t fields.
For example, a PROC_FILLCGROUP flag (via file2strvec)
could return NULL in cgroup whereas PROC_EDITCGRPCVT
(via fill_cgroup_cvt) *almost* guaranteed a return
address (as is true for PROC_EDITCMDLCVT and cmdline).
But even PROC_EDITCGRPCVT could return NULL if the
kernel version was less than 2.6.24. Then with NULL
ps would display a "-" while top would show "n/a".
And while unlikely, with the PROC_FILLSTATUS flag (via
status2proc) a NULL supgid address was theoretically
possible and both ps and top would then show "n/a".
This commit standardizes the following usage:
. PROC_FILLSTATUS (via status2proc)
guarantees a valid supgid address
representing either a true comma
delimited list or "-"
. PROC_FILLCGROUP plus
PROC_EDITCGRPCVT (via fill_cgroup_cvt)
guarantees a cgroup single vector
representing either a true control
group hierarchy or "-"
And as was true before, the following remains true:
PROC_FILLCOM or
PROC_FILLARG (via file2strvec)
may return a NULL cmdline pointer
. PROC_FILLCGROUP (via file2strvec)
may return a NULL cgroup pointer
. PROC_FILLCOM or
PROC_FILLARG plus
PROC_EDITCMDLCVT (via fill_cmdline_cvt)
guarantees a cmdline single vector
representing either a true command
line or a bracketed program name
. PROC_FILLSTATUS plus
PROC_FILLSUPGRP (via supgrps_from_supgids)
guarantees a valid supgrp address
representing either a true comma
delimited list or "-"

This commit restores the missing space between command
lines and the environment when the later is being
displayed. Below is a brief history of that elusive
character.
commit bb4f08ba29
Date: Thu Aug 11 07:42:14 2011 +1000
The ps program was altered for improved args/comm
compliance. At this time, the needed space was
present due to a buglet in the new library
read_unvectored function used by fill_cmdline_cvt.
commit a5881b5a4e
Date: Thu Dec 8 10:19:38 2011 -0600
The trailing space was eliminated so that the
file2strvec and fill_cmdline_cvt returned
command lines contained no trailing space.
However, this created a buglet when control group
hierarchies were displayed and the final cgroup
was empty.
This is also where the undetected ps buglet was
created.
commit c3a1239efe
Date: Sun Dec 11 12:00:50 2011 -0600
The control group anomaly was fixed but the impact
on ps args/environ was still not detected.

'si' and 'so' values depend on the result of the unitConvert
function where the output is a fixed-point size of kb_per_page
after the conversion. It gives 4 for kB units and 0 for MB units.
This also causes problems when switching between 'K' and 'k'
since the output value is 4 in both cases and the result for
'k' and 'K' then doesn't differ ... I swapped the conversion with
multiplication in order to make the number higher so it doesn't
lose precision. Since the unitConvert now accepts long instead
of int, I had to change the input type from int to long.

Commig a5d9c40262 caused signal spec,
again, to be required as first option; for example
pkill -3 <program> # worked
pkill <program> -3 # did not
This commit fixes the regression, without breaking option -u <numeric>
argument, assuming no-one is using negative numeric UID specifications
with space after -u && the argument. IMHO such use case is rare enough
to be broken.

Two problems.
1) skill/snice : distribution doesnt mean install
If you don't set your configure flags right, you dont install the
skill/snice man pages which means you will break any subsequent compiles
with the flags enabled. Man pages not to be installed should still be
distributed.
2) The git version into Makefile.am breaks under certain conditions.
The easy break for this is:
touch aclocal.m4
make
We need this script added plus some dist hook magic that got left out.

The previous version of sysctl had the form:
sysctl -p [file]
In other words, it required a space between the -p and the [file].
Omitting the space would lead to an error.
The new version though is the opposite:
sysctl -p[file]
In other words, it requires there to not be a space.
Considering the old behavior has been around for a decade, and runtime
checking for this mismatch in behavior is silly, and supporting the old
syntax is trivial, add support for it.
When '-p regexp' is glob is used to make reqular expression to be
expanded to argument list, which also means that -p option will
allow multiple files being specified as input.

There's an off-by-one error in the count (".conf" is 5 bytes, not 6),
and the logic is inverted for the strcmp return value -- we want to

The library does not weed out potential duplicate PID
values when sampling with the PROC_PID flag. This was
treated as merely an inefficiency by top and safely
ignored prior to the advent of forest view mode.
Now, however, if the -p switch duplicates certain PIDs,
*and* those processes have no PPID, *and* top's forest
view mode is active or activated, then a SEGV will be
generated (and caught).
This rather obscure buglet is thus limited to pid #1
(/sbin/init) and pid #2 (kthreadd). With any other
duplicate PIDs the worse case scenario was a '?' in
place of the usual forest view artwork.
This commit silently ignores any duplicate process ids
and thereby avoids the potential segmemtation fault.

The problem is that in ./proc/sysinfo.c uptime(), it is not
considered that the "savelocale" string is overwritten by the
subsequent call to setlocale(). Hence restoring the locale later on
won't work this way. "savelocale" ought to be a copy of the string
pointed to by setlocale()'s return-value.
