Status in QEMU: New Bug description: I've modified qemu to overwrite its arguments to set the process title, s= ince its current prctl() method has a 16-character limit. I posted the original patch to qemu-devel, made the changes others suggeste= d, then re-posted to qemu-devel. I flailed around a bit with the patch subm= ission process and think I finally got it right, but haven't been able to g= ain the notice of a committer to have this pushed. Maybe this will get more= attention when reported in the BTS.
