Michael Kerrisk b447cd586d Update /proc/[number]/cmdline description. 
It used to be true that the command line arguments were
not accessible when the process had been swapped out.
In ancient kernels (circa 2.0.*) the problem was that the
kernel relied on get_phys_addr to access the user space buffer,
which stopped working as soon as the process was swapped out.
Recent kernels use get_user_pages for the same purpose and thus
they should not have that limitation.

Michael Kerrisk 7b16ff4951 Note that POSIX requires localtime() to act as though tzset() 
was called, but localtime_r() does not have the same requirement.
