This is stretching the SRU policy quite a bit, but the overall nature of changes look ok, so for the sake of LTS, let's digest this a while in -proposed. Verification should include testing various Windows applications which ran before.

There is one thing in the debdiff which looks potentially troublesome:

I know that this actually fixes the procps restart, but in environments which use policy-rc.d to disable init scripts this would suddenly start to run one. Since it's "only" procps, it should not cause too much trouble (if /proc is not available, then you'd just go through the || true part), but at least I wanted to point it out. Would it be prudent to revert that for the SRU?
