in addition to changing PS_COMMAND, you'll need to change PS_FORMAT.

the whole ps format autodetection is a real mess (i was just looking at
it last week), and should be rethought.  my thinking is to remove much
of it from the configure.in script, and instead provide a way to specify
the options/format from the cmdline, but i probably won't be getting
to that any time in the near future because my TODO stack is already
nearly toppling over :)
