No problems there - we've had user-available sysctls() to read process
info since Day 1 of NetBSD, so it should also work on NetBSD 0.8!  I'll
set things up so that if the newer process info sysctl() is available it
will be used - this means that skill won't need to be recompiled every
time some kernel internals (specifically 'struct proc') get changed.
