We at PCS ran into this problem, too. This is because system
addresses in /dev/kmem (maybe /dev/mem) may look like

	_entry:  0x80000400

Thus, e.g. programs like crash, ps, who etc. have to

	lseek(corefd, nlist[PROC].n_value, 0);

cannot accept an error return. How should one fix this? We opened
the respective addresses for character special files.
