Screenshot showing negative per-process cpu and invalid cpu% values

Description of problem:

I've noticed pmatop in current PCP is reporting strangely in a couple of ways:
- incorrectly sorting top cpu burners.  this might be a 64bit metric issue,
where the metric is being displayed using 32bits worth?  (attached pcp archive
shows this)
- some columns are displayed with negative values (attached screenshot shows
this)
- some columns are displayed with both scientific notation and with K suffix
(see screenshot attached)
- column widths for some columns overflows the allotted screen real-estate
(attached archive shows the problem)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

pcp dev branch exhibits the problem.

How reproducible:

Every time for me, not so much for scox & fche after chatting.  May be related
to long running cpu-burning processes I have locally.  An archive is attached
showing the incorrect sorting.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run pmatop -h local: 
2. Run pmatop -r atop 1
3. Both the above show the issues for me

Actual results:

pmatop displays either the wrong top-cpu-burners (case 2), or sometimes
non-existent processes (seen in case 1 occassionally).

Expected results:

pmatop displays top cpu burners that match up with what top(1) shows.
