In response to a request in net.unix (well, no one is perfect :-)
and because the program is interesting in its own right, here is
the source to a version of uptime (BSD isn't it?) that I wrote 
for our NCR Tower/32 (Sys V.2 Unix):

It's fairly short, and the only mods (if any) you may have to
do is change where some of the include files reside. After
compilation, move to your favorite directory, and setuid
to root (it has to read /dev/kmem).
