Ticket #3495: boost-1.35.0-ppid-endless-loop.patch

    From: Ralf Horstmann <ralf_horstmann@mcafee.com>

Some vserver kernel emulate the init process in a way that ppid
of process 1 is 1. This lets the debugger search function go into
an endless loop.

Since pid 1 is unlikely to be a debugger, we can safely ignore
pid 1 and just quit searching when we reach pid 1 instead of 0.
