This happens with freshly built -CURRENT, on an uniprocessor machine:

$ cat loop.c
main() { while (1); }
$ time ./loop
   [ wait for ten seconds... ]
^C
real    0m9.982s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m5.689s

Uh? Other utilities, such as top(1) and systat(1) show that 100% of time
is accounted to the system. I imagine that this is related to SMPng...

Any clues?
