This can be confirmed.
As I tried to check this I have noticed a strange workaround:

- Go to a directory of your choice (I prefer /usr/src) and run: apt-get source 
gnome-system-monitor
- Next run: sudo apt-get build-dep gnome-system-monitor
- Go into the created directory usually called "gnome-system-monitor-2.22.0" 
(if you got an older version you are not up to date!)
- Run the following commands: ./configure --prefix=/usr && make && make install

This should do the trick! Now you can run gnome-system-monitor and if
you try to change a forbidden process you'll be informed about it and
gsm keeps running.

Actually I have done this to fix the bug, but in a compiled version it
doesn't seem to happen. Maybe anyone got an idea of what is going on
here - I don't.

Cheers,
Thomas
