FreeBSD hato.cs.pitt.edu 2.2.8-RELEASE FreeBSD 2.2.8-RELEASE #0: Sat Jul 10 20:01:12 EDT 1999     taka@hato.cs.pitt.edu:/rk98/compile/FreeBSD-2.2.8/new/compile/HATO  i386

>Description:
In the file,
ftp://ftp3.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-stable/src/sys/miscfs/procfs/procfs_status.c

procfs_dostatus(curp, p, pfs, uio)
...
        pid = p->p_pid;
        ppid = p->p_pptr ? p_p_pptr->p_pid : 0,
        pgid = p->p_pgrp->pg_id;

I believe the middle line should be:

        ppid = p->p_pptr ? p->p_pptr->p_pid : 0;

it seems like every procfs code has this bug since 1996....
