 * Alternative ways of updating ps display:
 *
 * PS_USE_SETPROCTITLE
 *	   use the function setproctitle(const char *, ...)
 *	   (newer BSD systems)
 * PS_USE_PSTAT
 *	   use the pstat(PSTAT_SETCMD, )
 *	   (HPUX)
 * PS_USE_PS_STRINGS
 *	   assign PS_STRINGS->ps_argvstr = "string"
 *	   (some BSD systems)
 * PS_USE_CHANGE_ARGV
 *	   assign argv[0] = "string"
 *	   (some other BSD systems)
 * PS_USE_CLOBBER_ARGV
 *	   write over the argv and environment area
 *	   (most SysV-like systems)
 * PS_USE_NONE
 *	   don't update ps display
 *	   (This is the default, as it is safest.)
