Hi folks,

Is there a good reason why sysctl(8) won't display _any_ output for
opaque MIB entries named as arguments?  I'm specifically interested in
kern.proc.all.  I can ``sysctl -A | grep kern.proc.all'', but it's weird
that neither of these two do anything useful:

	sysctl -A kern.proc.all
	sysctl kern.proc.all

Is there some sound reason for this, or am I just lost on the fringes of
what sysctl(8) was designed for?

Ciao,
Sheldon.
