Title:
  Overwrite argv to set process title, eliminating 16-character prctl() limit.

Status in QEMU:
  New

Bug description:
  I've modified qemu to overwrite its arguments to set the process title, since 
its current prctl() method has a 16-character limit.

I posted the original patch to qemu-devel, made the changes others suggested, 
then re-posted to qemu-devel. I flailed around a bit with the patch submission 
process and think I finally got it right, but haven't been able to gain the 
notice of a committer to have this pushed. Maybe this will get more attention 
when reported in the BTS.
