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.
