	I agree with the sysctl approach, along with your patch for making
	sysctl oid's non-repeating (although it could use a mpfixme() because
	of the global counter).

	So just commit it, I'll do the lock around the counter later. :)

I have put in the change to avoid reuse of AUTO_OID's. Per your
request, I have left the locking issues to you :-)
