I've reported this bug in April and it still
    exists in 1.00-pre2. So I made patches for
    both 0.60.x and 1.00-pre2.  The patch is very
    simple, just use strncmp instead of strcmp.
    Please apply if it is OK.

   Here's the procedure to test this problem:
   Create a executable with very long name, say
   'test_1234567890123456' and execute it. Try
   using 'killall' or 'pidof' to find/kill this
   program.  Without this patch, you can't find
   the program.
