Hi...

	Is it normal for w and ps to break after installing a new
kernel?  I'm getting the following error after rebooting, and I've
gone to the trouble of recompiling 'w', and get the same error:

hub# bsdmake
cc -O   -c /usr/src/usr.bin/w/../../bin/ps/fmt.c
cc -O   -c pr_time.c
cc -O   -c proc_compare.c
cc -O   -c w.c
cc -O    -o w fmt.o pr_time.o proc_compare.o w.o  -lkvm
gzip -c uptime.1 > uptime.1.gz
gzip -c w.1 > w.1.gz
hub# ./w
12:53AM  up 9 mins, 5 users, load averages: 1.45, 0.98, 0.48
USER     TTY FROM              LOGIN@  IDLE WHAT
w: proc size mismatch (29008 total, 620 chunks): Undefined error: 0
hub#

	Now, I haven't had a chance to recompile the libraries yet,
so ...

	That's probably it...I need the new -lkvm?

	If that's all it is, then I won't panic.  If it isn't supposed
to fail, then I'll panic :)

Thanks...
