Note the trailing 'd' on processes 1271 and 1273.

A trivial 'bug', I know...

I can't reproduce on my RH9 box.  What kind on Linux system (distribution,
kernel, glibc)?  Does it have setproctitile (check for HAVE_SETPROCTITLE in
config.h).

Comment 2 Al Smith 2004-05-02 18:35:05 AEST

Slackware (happens on both 8.1 and 9.1); linux kernel is 2.4.26; glibc is 2.2.5 
on the slackware-8.1 systems and 2.3.2 on the slackware 9.1 systems.

HAVE_SETPROCTITLE is not defined on either distribution.

Comment 3 Al Smith 2004-08-21 03:43:22 AEST

Seems to be fixed in 3.9p1.

Comment 4 Darren Tucker 2004-08-21 12:45:37 AEST

That's great, but as far as I can tell there's been no changes that might have
affected it, and I was unable to reproduce it here.  Is it possible it was
something specific to your system?
