Hi Erich;

your response made me rethink and I found that
a) busybox ps never supported really the options "ax" (and more), but
behaves conform
b) I believe we added psargs.patch to avoid the "cosmetic error" (I just
forgot about the reason why it has been added a few years ago - hint to
ourself: "add a note what a patch is for")
