This bug seems to be a duplicate of #430427 which I didn't recognize from
reportbug's list (apologies). Please merge.
Actually, I have to correct myself - this feature seems to show up with
kernels past 2.6.18 (my i386 boxen have the default Etch kernel while
I'm running 2.6.24.x on the amd64 ones, and a few exceptions from that
rule, 2.6.17 on amd64, have the sorting correct).
Calling ps with "kstart_time" in addition to the usual parameters ("auxw"
in my case) seems to restore the previous behaviour.
So I'm curious now whether it's a regression that newer kernels have
changed the ordering in /proc (and whether it can be fixed, or changed
through config variables)...
Cheers,
Steffen
