2.6.22, without kernel patch, ps -ejH (shortened):

  PID  PGID   SID TTY          TIME CMD
    2     0     0 ?        00:00:00 kthreadd
    3     0     0 ?        00:00:00   migration/0
    1     1     1 ?        00:00:00 init
  821   821   821 ?        00:00:00   udevd
 2228  2228  2228 ?        00:00:00   klogd

and `ps afx`:

  PID TTY      STAT   TIME COMMAND
    2 ?        S<     0:00 [kthreadd]
    3 ?        S<     0:00  \_ [migration/0]
    1 ?        Ss     0:00 init [5]  
  821 ?        S<s    0:00 /sbin/udevd --daemon

With procps patch: it's all thrown up again, possibly due to some
kernel patch that made it into 2.6.22.

(ps -ejH)
  PID  PGID   SID TTY          TIME CMD
    2     0     0 ?        00:00:00 kthreadd
    3     0     0 ?        00:00:00   migration/0
    4     0     0 ?        00:00:00   ksoftirqd/0
    1     1     1 ?        00:00:00 init
  821   821   821 ?        00:00:00   udevd
 2228  2228  2228 ?        00:00:00   klogd


(ps afx)
  PID TTY      STAT   TIME COMMAND
    2 ?        S<     0:00 [kthreadd]
    3 ?        S<     0:00 [migration/0]
    4 ?        SN     0:00 [ksoftirqd/0]
    1 ?        Ss     0:00 init [5]  
  821 ?        S<s    0:00 /sbin/udevd --daemon
 2228 ?        Ss     0:00 /sbin/klogd -c 5 -2 -x


(procps 3.2.7, the one used back when this thread was alive :^))

So does `ps afx` for me ;-)
