I have just in the past couple hours realized that ps_status.c is
seriously broken on OS X 10.3. It appears that Apple has randomly
decided to start #define'ing "BSD", which they did not do in any
prior OS X release, and this confuses ps_status.c into choosing the
wrong method of updating the ps-visible command line. Aside from
causing ps to not show any useful info about postmaster child processes,
this seems to cause dynamic loading of libraries to fail in some
cases :-( ... still trying to understand what's happening there ...

Indeed. We need to fix this yesterday.

I don't see why system.c would affect the problem I'm seeing --- does
this really fix pltcl for you?
