Subject: vmstat text stats printed incorrectly
Index:	ucb/vmstat.c 2.10BSD

Description:
	vmstat prints 0 for some of the text table statistics when
	the values should be non-zero.

Repeat-By:
	Do a "vmstat -s" and observe that some of the text stats
	print as 0.

Fix:
	Apply the following patch.  It's another long vs. int gotcha.
