The '-a' flag[0] which should list the full cmd line seems to be limited
to 4096 chars[1].
In most case it is more than enough, but not always the case for java
processes with long classpaths for instance as describe in the bug
description.
[0] -a, --list-full
List the full command line as well as the process ID. (pgrep
only.)
[1] pgrep.c
