I've uploaded a new psmisc-21.5-3 package.  When the package hits the
mirrors, can you test if pstree from 21.5-3 still crashes in that
situation?  I think I found a bug which could be the cause for the SEGV,
but I couldn't reproduce it so far.  The potential bug should be fixed
in psmisc-21.5-3, nevertheless.
