    Ummmm... we hack the way load averages are calculated so it
ignores this particular piece of code.  :)  While we're at it, we'll
have the kernel save your uptime to a file on a proper shutdown, to be
restored at the next boot.  That way you can have a "true" uptime of
how long your machine lasts between crashes.  ;-)
