[2.5 patch]

Burton Windle sent a patch that does the following (slightly reformatted by me) in Bugzilla #142:

With the current 2.5 Linux kernel, the ver_linux script prints bad version
info for the Procps line:

Procps 100.

Steps to reproduce:
This is because

razor:/giant/linux/scripts# ps --version
Unknown HZ value! (85) Assume 100.
procps version 2.0.7
razor:/giant/linux/scripts# ps --version 2>&1 | awk 'NR==1
{print "Procps         , $NF}'
Procps                 100.
