hobbitd_client ps error

[Kruse, Jason K.]

I'm having the local client crash on one system.  I've tracked it down
to the process listing tests and am seeing odd behavior.

The [ps] listing on this system is HUGE!  1100 processes, 155,000
characters.  What I see is after 32K, 223 processes in this example, if
the string CMD appears in the process list I get an Abort.  It seems to
be inconsistent regarding the number of bytes and lines required,
however the CMD string does appear to be a key.

I didn't see anything in the all-in-one that seemed to apply to this
type of situation.

I see the reference to CMD in the client/solaris.c source but am not
sure if I follow how the message is processed.  Maybe it thinks it's
starting another header when it sees it and goes kinda nutty.
