Title:
  Overwrite argv to set process title, eliminating 16-character prctl()
  limit.

Status in QEMU:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I've modified qemu to overwrite its arguments to set the process
  title, since its current prctl() method has a 16-character limit.

  I posted the original patch to qemu-devel, made the changes others
  suggested, then re-posted to qemu-devel. I flailed around a bit with
  the patch submission process and think I finally got it right, but
  haven't been able to gain the notice of a committer to have this
  pushed. Maybe this will get more attention when reported in the BTS.
