This is normal. If I do "ps axfl | grep some", on an 11.0 system, the output is folded (as with "ps axflww"), and I get to see the entire line. On openSUSE 12.2 the output after "ps axfl | grep some" is still truncated. It is as if ps doesn't recognize that the output is being piped? I'm not sure, but I think this behaviour could be very bad for scripts that rely on the earlier behaviour.
