Well, while everyone is talking about setproctitle affecting wuftpd,
I should probably note that it even affects the OpenBSD ftpd.  In fact,
looking around, it looks like it might affect everyone's ftpd.


Curiously enough, this bug didn't affect the Linux port of the OpenBSD
ftpd (http://freshmeat.net/appindex/1999/10/09/939509389.html), because
it doesn't #define HASSETPROCTITLE.
