Two remarks:
a. Values need yet to be properly scaled to get them in the usual format.
b. Unlike other apollo system calls, this one does not return a status.

getload(avenrun)
double avenrun[3];
{
	int load[3];
	register int i;
	proc1_$get_loadav(load);
	for (i = 0; i < 3; i++)
		avenrun[i] = (double)load[i] / 65536.0;
}
