[PATCH] process accounting: take original leader's start_time in non-leader exec
The only record we have of the real-time age of a process, regardless of
execs it's done, is start_time. When a non-leader thread exec, the
original start_time of the process is lost. Things looking at the
real-time age of the process are fooled, for example the process accounting
record when the process finally dies. This change makes the oldest
start_time stick around with the process after a non-leader exec. This way
the association between PID and start_time is kept constant, which seems
correct to me.
