proc.num[] not working correctly for Solaris ZONES

      If I use proc.num[cron,root] as an item on a Solaris Server which hosts a Solaris zone the result is 2 ( one cron deamon running on the Server, one running on the zone).

      explanation:
      The agent is going through the /proc directory and checking for the deamon.
      the output for a Server hosting zones can look like this:

      dr-x--x--x   5 root     root         864 May  8 16:02 1158
      

      ==> here you see the userid and groupid are either "real/local" userids or zone users represented by a number

      Explicitly searching for a deamon with userid "root" for eg. is no workaround, as the checking for the user running the deamon is done in the subdirectory.

      Can this be changed/corrected?

      Thanx
