The sysctl namespace is (partially, badly) autoconfigured via linker
set.

Linker sets do not agregate from LKM's.

This is partly because of the linker interface, and partly because
of the fact that FreeBSD is not ELF and partly because of the way
inter-ELF linker set agregation requires a registration callback
instead of taking the linker set at face value.

If you want nfsstat, you need to statically link your NFS at this time,
until we leave the a.out dark ages behind and fix the ELF agregation
architectural issues that the gcc/gld people have so far failed to
address.
