[Dovecot] proctitle woes with 2.0.7 vs. 2.0.6

[Clemens Schrimpe]

Hello -

I just noticed, that there seems to be a change in the way "process titles" are being set between 2.0.6 and 2.0.7:

Behavior of 2.0.6: (ps aux | fgrep dovecot)
------------------

root     30803   0.0  0.0   601540    708   ??  S     1:08AM   0:00.00 dovecot/log
_dovecot 30802   0.0  0.0   601544    624   ??  S     1:08AM   0:00.00 dovecot/anvil
root     30801   0.0  0.0   600460    472   ??  Ss    1:08AM   0:00.01 /usr/local/sbin/dovecot
_dovecot 30819   0.0  0.0   607304   1672   ??  S     1:08AM   0:00.01 dovecot/auth [0 wait, 0 passdb, 0 userdb]
_dovenul 30818   0.0  0.0   603512   1724   ??  S     1:08AM   0:00.01 dovecot/imap-login [10.11.12.13]
root     30805   0.0  0.1   601776   3640   ??  S     1:08AM   0:00.02 dovecot/config


Behavior of 2.0.7:
------------------

_dovecot 35104   0.0  0.0   607308   1676   ??  S     1:11AM   0:00.01 dovecot/auth
_dovenul 35103   0.0  0.0   603516   1736   ??  S     1:11AM   0:00.01 dovecot/imap-login
root     35099   0.0  0.1   601780   3652   ??  S     1:11AM   0:00.02 dovecot/config
root     35097   0.0  0.0   601544    716   ??  S     1:11AM   0:00.00 dovecot/log
_dovecot 35096   0.0  0.0   601552    692   ??  S     1:11AM   0:00.00 dovecot/anvil [4 connections]
root     35095   0.0  0.0   600464    460   ??  Ss    1:11AM   0:00.01 /usr/local/sbin/dovecot

(of course the configuration remained 100% identical - I just compiled 2.0.7, again using the same ./configure parameters and did a "make install")

It seems, that while anvil has gained some verbosity, auth and imap-login (and maybe pop-login) seem to have lost their "voice".

Is there any intention behind this or did I ran into a "bug"?
