process start time set wrongly at boot for kernel 2.6.9

[Jerome Borsboom]

Starting with kernel 2.6.9 the process start time is set wrongly for 
processes that get started early in the boot process. Below is a dump from 
my 'ps' command. Note the start time for processes 1-12. After process 12 
the start time is set right.
