I have just commited changes to devstat(9) that will require recompilation
of the following things:

libdevstat [ do this first! ]
systat
iostat
vmstat
rpc.rstatd

You'll have to recompile those things in order to use them with the new
kernel changes.

You will probably also have to recompile any ports that depend on
libdevstat.  (I think there are 2 or 3 sysinfo type ports that depend on
it.)

A buildworld/installworld will of course do all the upgrades automatically,
and that's the recommended course of action.

For those who are interested:  the changes implement different sorting
priorities for different devices, so that, for instance, da devices now
appear before fd devices, instead of after.  i.e., "more interesting"
devices appear before "less interesting" devices.

Thanks for Bruce Evans and David O'Brien for suggestions, reviewing the
code, etc.
