Linux does have libproc, which is meant (IIUC) to mirror the BSD-style libproc. It wouldn't surprise me if it's just parsing the same files under the hood, however, and correspondingly has the same bugs. But then again, bugs in one place is potentially a better state of affairs than bugs in many places (?).
