Thanks for looking into this, my initial thought is that what you have
described here and on the conky issue looks right. I have forwarded the
report to the procps list as I wasn't the one that introduced this
change and so there might be a reason for it.

The change was done in 3.3.10 to fix a problem, I suspect it fixed that
and introduced another. Linux memory reporting is fiddly to say the
least.
