    The program X3 (http://www.10k.org/jake/soft.html), a wmcube clone for
    Mac OS X is not susceptible to these issue as the entire codebase was
    complete rewritten in Objective-C:
    
    1) object file parsing is done carefully using the NSString/NSScanner
       objects.
    
    2) system load doesn't rely on /proc and is instead measured using
       mach's host_processor_info() call.
