I wonder if this isn't a bit too much. I don't want to have to deal with bug reports about 'svn --version --verbose' returning an error because the format of /proc/$pid/maps changed, about shared libraries not being listed in the output because their ELF magic bytes are different, and so on. It's not clear to me what functionality we gain in exchange for this complexity and maintenance cost. mmap() things that aren't .so, or that are .so but were mapped manually as opposed to by the runtime linker, won't be listed?
