reported by Harald Koenig, Nick Simicich, and others)
- fuser: now also scans /proc/*/maps
- fuser: fixed NULL pointer dereferencing when processes are created while
fuser is running (fix by Pauline Middelink)
- fuser: now resets effective uid to real uid before killing, thereby making

- man pages: minor corrections and improvements
Changes from version 6 to 7
