   hi just installed 1.0.9
   and now this 'bug' ?

Thanks for pointing it out, it is fixed now.  If impatient, unpack the
procps SRPM from the UP-1.0.9 distribution, and perform the following
tasks to get fixed binaries:

1) Add the patch at the end of this mail to your procps tree
2) Rebuild
3) Install
4) Remove /etc/psdevtab
5) Run w, ps, or one of those procps programs once, this will
   rebuild /etc/psdevtab as a side effect

Once done, all the bugs you reported should be gone.
