	basesrc/lib/libc/gen: humanize_number.c
	syssrc/sys/kern: kern_subr.c

Log Message:
SI prefixes apply to decimal multiplies only. For binary (2^n) multiplies
the most "officially looking" is IEC 60027-2, ie "Ki", "Mi", ...,
which is not too popular, and which would require more code changes.
So stick with the traditional capital "K" for (divisor==1024), and use
the SI "k" otherwise (ie (divisor==1000)).
