New issue 89: ps parse failure
https://bitbucket.org/rsc/plan9port/issue/89/ps-parse-failure

Description:
There are times when Linux's /bin/ps will print "Your 20333x1 screen size is bogus. Expect trouble." to stderr, causing trouble for such programs as 9 ps which parse /bin/ps's output without first discarding its errors. One of those times can be when calling /bin/ps from inside an ssh session in a win window in 9vx. The message would be an excellent addition to the fortune file.
