Indeed. I forced it to use PS_USE_NONE on my Linux machine, and got
a core dump on the first try of the regression tests:

+1. I'll make it so, and check the other callers too.
Once I push this, you should remove the update_process_title hack
from lorikeet's config, since that was just a workaround until
