I should have tested netstat -m before I posted my response.  Contrary to 
the manual the netstat -m does not show the network private buffer statistics,
it shows the streams statistics. The output of strstat in crash is almost
exactly the same as the output from netstat -m (although netstat -m is
*much* faster and may be run by mere mortals).

Sorry for the confusion.
