* I'm not Rich... anyway, this already came up in the XFree86 beta
* group. It's definately _not_ a kmem access problem, but rather that
* xload is apparently built using the wrong options. It's not supposed
* to access /dev/kmem, but should use getloadavg(3) instead (which in
* turn uses sysctl(3)).
Ok -- thanks for the hint. I waded my way through the spaghetti of
#ifdef's and finally came up with this patch:

(Hey don't laugh, it took me half an hour to make this thing compile.)
It seems to work fine for me now.
Please check it, I'm not sure what BSDi does (I assumed the missing
#ifdef was BSDi's, because there was a "#else /* __bsdi__ */" in
the middle...)...
