Aah.  This isn't quite what I lust for:  Is it possible to get a *log* of
allocation requests rather than aggregate sums or averages?  The reason is
so I can calculate the distribution of the data. For example: the kind of
information I would like to have from kern_malloc for each invocation is:
	- time of the allocation
	- size
	- time spent in asleep 
	- return value
The same thing can be done with kern_free and from there the time the
memory was used can be calculated.
