    It's all in.  The more feedback the better.

    You will have to recompile KVM-related support programs, especially
    pstat.  I also suggest recompiling libkvm, ps, top, vmstat, systat,
    etc...

    The new swapper is not understood by top or systat yet but it is
    well understood by pstat -s ( aka swapinfo ), and pstat -ss will
    dump the radix tree.

    One thing I haven't been able to test, because I forgot:  Interleaved 
    swap ( more then one swap device ).  I'll try to test that ASAP.  I've
    tested everything else as well as I've been able, mainly by running
    'make -j30 buildworld', make on various ports, eatmem, and other
    applications all at once on my test box.

    No comments on syntax, please, the commit is understood to be rough
    and the syntax and comments will be fixed up with more commits.

    I intend to make further forced commits to document special items,
    such as core bug fixes, and addlib other comments.
