OK, here's a couple of things about your script.

  task = pid2task(pid())

is the same thing as:

  task = task_current()

Plus, since task is the current task, task_execname(task) and execname()
are always going to return the same string.

So, at that point you really don't need your 'task' variable.

If you are still getting that kernel_string copy fault error, you'll
need to delete/replace one function call at a time so that we can narrow
down which function is causing the fault.
