This is because theproc->p_cred is a pointer which is valid in the kernel's
address space - not in your process's address space.  You should use kvm_read
to get the data:

	kvm_t kmem = kvm_open(NULL, NULL, NULL, O_RDONLY, argv[0])
	struct proc *theproc = kvm_nextproc(kmem);
	struct ucred *cred = malloc (sizeof struct ucred);

	kvm_read(kmem, theproc->p_cred, cred, sizeof struct ucred);
	theproc->p_cred = cred;
