I am trying to write a kernel loadable server, in whcih
I need to call 
	vm_allocate(target_task, address, size, anywhere)
If the program runs as a user process, I can use task_self() without
problem.  But when I use task_self() in the server and try to load it
to the kernel with kl_util,  I get an error message saying
that the symbol _task_self is not found.

Is there anyone on the net who knows why?  And suggestions
are welcome.

Thanks in advance.
