Ah that means that the /netbsd kernel differs from the one you booted
with.binaries such as ps, vmstat, netstat etc. use the /netbsd kernel to lookup
symbols in the kernel. The idea is that this should match the running kernel.
Then allows a binary to get the address in the kernel to read kernel variables
from.
