That makes perfect sense now. Thank you.

Wow! That kind of relates to my #3 question so thanks again.

I had tried unsuccessfully some ./configure --help provisions. Your example
helps alot.

That define affects the library and top. It's for Dr. Fink at Suse and should
probably be integrated. The other top defines are not important.
Thank you for acknowledgement. Is it time to merge, or has someone

Other than possibly promoting top from /usr/bin to /bin, I'd say we're ready to

After such a merge, should a rebase be performed on procps/master? I find
that's necessary locally to properly represent the history.
