The problem as dwhite told syrinx and I found out it that ccpu is 0
for ULE and there is a return 0.0 for that case.

The problem is that after removing that patch I see "something".

Pinning my a.out to the 2nd of my 2 single core opterons, top reports
CPU 1 100% a.out but snmp says 0 even if I leave that runnign for a
few minutes.

I am not sure if hostres is doing it all correct, nor am I sure
sched_ule.c/kern_proc.c are right. This needs more investigation.
Either syrinx or I will have a look. Worst I'll try to catch Jeff.
