 After doing some reading it appears that netstat is passing in an
 invalid value to memstat_kvm_all, which subsequently calls
 memstat_kvm_malloc for mbuf.c (kvmd = NULL). Calling malloc with NULL
 for a pointer address of course is invalid coding.
 
 main.c:510 should probably be modified to print out an error message
 of some kind instead of:
 
 mbpr(NULL, 0);
 
 The maintainer (gnn@, net@?) should be assigned this bug.
