To follow up on my own note, I have since discovered that the swap 
space usage on my disk reported by "top" is slowing increasing for no 
apparent reason.

When I posted the note, the usage was up to 608K.  This morning it was 
up to 8xxK, and right now it is 928K.  I expect it to be over 1Mb in 
the morning.

This is on a machine with 256Mb RAM and 256Mb swap.  It shouldn't ever 
even need to touch swap, and with an Oct 23 kernel, never did.  A Dec 
18 kernel (ELF or AOUT) seems to keep growing.  The machine isn't doing 
anything different nightly that it wasn't doing before, namely nightly 
"make -j8 buildworld".

Any thoughts on where to start looking in the code for this?  At least 
I know the timeframe in which to look (Oct23-Dec18), unless someone can 
narrow it further.  Thanks!
