I'll be adding a pointer to the end of it which can be used by emulators for storing process-related emulator-specific information. It'll initially be used for storing information related to signal context state in the SysVR4 emulator, but there's no reason other emulators can't use it to hook into state data they need to store on a process-by-process base. I'll commit it tomorrow; You'll need to rebuild libkvm and any statically linked binaries which are linked against libkvm (or just do a make world).
