I'm afraid I already tried that: before rebuilding I had a message
from libkvm saying it couldn't find pread ? (from memory). Just in
case, I rebuilt top, rebuilt the kernel, rebooted, rebuilt top and
still get
% top
top: kvm_read for _cnt: Bad address
gdb doesn't get me anywhere. Thing is it works for others, but I don't
really know where to look!
