Seems you omitted it.

If you use -l, do not include the "lib" and ".so".

proc_stat_* functions are in libps.so:
$ gcc -Wall -lps start-stop-daemon.c

libps.so.0.2 declares a dependency on libihash.so.0.2
(check with "ldd" or "objdump --private-headers"),
so that should be automatically linked in.
