Spec states that demonitor/2 should always return #state{}, but it
wasn't the case when pid wasn't found in #state.dict. This made API
unsafe to use, as it could lead to some other process storing incorrect
data as a pmon state.
This patch will prevent exceptions with stacktrace provided at the end of this message, where lists:foldl/3 was used to accumulate result of sequence of pmon:demonitor/2 applications.
Probably attempt to demonitor something that was not monitored is manifestation of another bug, but I wasn't able to pinpoint it.
