Some of the 2.4 semantics just don't make sense. I would not find it difficult to explain what I believe correct semantics to be in a written document.

IMO this is a must for such files (and be it only some comments above the code implementing them). I'm afraid that statm is carrying too much historical baggage, though -- you would add yet another interpretation of those 7 fields. Tools reading statm would have to be updated anyway, so I'd rather think about what could be done with a new (or just different) file.
Okay, could you write up a "specification" for what you want reported, then I can cook up a new file or some such for you?
