When the new -X/-XX options were introduced, the width
and justification requirements were satisfied with a 2
step approach. First, format strings would dynamically
be built and then employed in the subsequent printf().
This was a total waste of time and resources since the
printf family of functions provide for the '*' width &
precision conventions to meet this need via arguments.
But even more importantly that foolish endeavor always
hides the potential warnings like the one shown below.
Henceforth this pmap will printf in the proper manner!

COMPATIBILITY
This code is intended for use with Linux 2.6.xx, 3.x and
hopefully all future kernels.
INSTALLATION
If you are using git version of the project you need extra step.
./autogen.sh
After that, and everyone using .tar.xz version of procps-ng, can
do normal build. Read './configure --help' to select options for
your needs.
./configure
make
make install
If you have DejaGNU installed you can run optional test suite.
make check
HOW TO CONTRIBUTE
See Documentation/BUGS file.
PACKAGING
If you are a downstream maintainer (packager) for a Linux
distribution, please avoid causing troubles. This section
applies to you.
Avoid maintaining distribution specific patches. Send your
patches to upstream, where they are at least reviewed, if not
included.
Please forward bug reports. If your bug database is public and
busy enough to bother with, please make this known. Follow
Debian's lead in making the bug database easy to comment on via
email without need for an account.
For normal packages, ensure that you do not add debugging flags
to the CFLAGS variable.
