Re: [PATCH] default ps -W process start time to system boot time when inaccessible, 0, -1

I don't seem to get my point across.  I'm fine with getting no start
time value when that ps wasn't able to obtain that information.  If we
have to use magic values to convey that information for one reason or
another, then I'd rather opt for one that is obviously pulled out of
thin air than for one that I have to compare to some other stuff before
that becomes clear.
