For example, child process of spamd has 32031 (spamd child) S 32026 32026 32026 0 -1 4210752 338 0 0 0 ... fscanf("%d %*s %c %d*[^\n]") in read_process() can't parse above as we expected, because %s only skips non-whitespace. I.e. it parses like following, 32031 (spamd child) S 32026 32026 32026 0 -1 4210752 338 0 0 0 ... +---+ +----+ + %d %*s %c and returns 2 (pid=32031, state=c). This fixes it by skipping task->comm part manually.
