 	You may want to pull the p-table and the u-areas out from /dev/kmem, /dev/mem,
and /dev/swap.  You can use nlist(3c) to figure out addresses of the p-table and u-areas.
Once you have the p-table and the u-areas, you will be able to calculate the current
load.  However, the code will be system dependent, if you do it this way.
