Use a ps that gives you a warning when your System.map file is wrong. This whole problem would have been obvious had you used a better ps, such as http://www.cs.uml.edu/~acahalan/linux/procps-990103.tar.gz
$ ps -n /boot/System.map-2.0.31 -o pid,nwchan,wchan,cmd -u luser Warning: /boot/System.map-2.0.31 has an incorrect kernel version. PID WCHAN WCHAN CMD 405 116909 116909 su - luser 406 17b75f 17b75f -bash 417 12ced9 12ced9 /usr/lib/netscape/netscape-communicator 427 12ced9 12ced9 (dns helper)
Hmmm, looks like /boot/System.map-2.0.31 has an incorrect kernel version.
