How can I fix that?
I believe this is due to the lack of NPTL support in the ppc build of glibc. There are bugs open on that lack. For example: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=246689 Because of this, we still use the old linuxthreads, which have several issues including that the threads all show up as individual processes and confuse all the procps tools.
