I have no clue how we could have got the proc pmda to the point where

Could it simply be a short-lived process that happened to die while
the pmda was working?

Unlikely .. the missing process is the one that is generating the output ... src/proc_test is doing the pmFetch so it can't really go away and still be able to report the results of the pmFetch.
