I think that the functionality did not exist before, and Corinna added
it.  So, not a bug, just things that weren't implemented yet.  I suspect
that this will allow better ps tools (such as pstree which was mentioned
elsewhere) to be ported.  But, I haven't tried building any of them so I
really don't know.
