I could also reproduce it with emacs. I've used emacs-gtk to avoid the symlink.

```shell 1
$ emacs-gtk -nw -fn helvetica
```

```shell 2
$ ./pidof emacs-gtk
24727
$ ./pidof $(which emacs-gtk)
$ ls -l $(which emacs-gtk)
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5294300 Mar 14 21:30 /usr/bin/emacs-gtk
```

Alright. Then there is still the issue with gdb, which is no symlink.
A full example for that:

```shell 1

$ type gdb
gdb is /usr/bin/gdb
$ gdb --core=corefile

```

```shell 2

$ ./pidof gdb
23125
$ ./pidof $(which gdb)
$ ls -l $(which gdb)
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 9904496 Feb 24 22:58 /usr/bin/gdb



This one I have not been able to duplicate. Does it happen with any
other programs which accept arguments or just gdb?
