Are a process' argc and argv keep anyplace other than on its stack? If
so where, (like in the ublock, if so what element?)

I've been writing a pseudo-ps under AIX and can find all the processes
and there names are in the ublock in u_comm, but haven't found a lead
yet as to where the args are kept.
