Summary: check_procs under HP-UX does not see command arguments

Initial Comment:
The ps command used by check_procs on HP-UX does not
show command arguments.  So it can't be used to search
for things like "man ascii".

I think this is true for all versions of check_procs. 
I've specifically tried 1.3.1 and CVS HEAD under HP-UX
11.00.  I suspect it's the same on all versions of HP-UX.

configure picks '/usr/bin/ps -el' as the ps command. 
If this is changed to:
/usr/bin/env UNIX95=1 /usr/bin/ps  -eo
'state,uid,ppid,args'

and PS_FORMAT is "%s %s %s %n%s" and PS_VARLIST is
procstat,&procuid,&procppid,&pos,procprog

then it works.
