6.0-R here and I can see more than 1 process in RUN state and it seems 
to be synced with "? processes: ? running" ... so i believe the observed 
behaviour is OK.

what bothers me more is that sometimes my system is under load yet i 
cannot figure out via top(1) which process(es) are loading it -- that is 
to say i see 100% cpu usage yet processes count to much less (and i'm 
not talking about process that are rapidly created and destroyed).  :-\
