Well, I think there is an issue in the proc struct bloat but I disagree
strongly about modifying argv - any worthwhile code uses setproctitle()
now simply because the argv space is highly dependant on the number of
arguments passed to the program, and thus non deterministic. Since we
have setproctitle(), we can depreciate the argv junk.
