Ps knows about the layout of some kernel structures. You must recompile
ps if you changed kernel structures. You do not need to copy the Amoeba
kernel into /usr/src/kernel since you could tell ps where it is and save
the necessary data into /etc/psadatbase (ps -U) but you need different
ps for normal and Amoeba kernel.
