This doesn't seem to be very important, but I am curious.
On one of our file servers, the mbx_helper process shows up in
the 'pst' listing as unnamed (i.e., with a UID number).  It
is started the regular way from startup.spm via a
'cps /sys/mbx/mbx_helper', exactly as it is on other servers.
Only on one is it unnamed (of course, it doesn't show up
in `node_data/proc_dir on that node, but does on others).

It doesn't seem to affect anything.

Any clues?  I guess I could try copying /sys/mbx/mbx_helper
from another node, but I would like to understand what's going on.
