Am I correct in stating that this problem only occurs on SVR4 based unix's [where /proc exists]? Or would, say, SunOS 4.1.x be affected?
svr4 has nowhere near the "features" of linux's /proc fs. svr4 merely has the memory space of the process available (a few other tid bits can be acquired from the file handle with a few judicious ioctl()'s). but on the other hand under linux you can read the tea leaves from the second last cup of tea consumed by the grandmother of any given process, quite a remarkble feat... :)
