The policy is that the WARNS level should characterize the
quality of a piece of code irrespective of any conditions.
Otherwise the code doesn't deserve the WARNS level assigned.

for catching general regressions in future. Unfortunately,
it still displays some problems at WARNS=6 on architectures
with stricter alignment requirements, e.g., ia64.
ifstat Display the network traffic going through active interfaces
on the system. Idle interfaces will not be displayed until
they receive some traffic.
For each interface being displayed, the current, peak and
total statistics are displayed for incoming and outgoing
traffic. By default, the ifstat display will automatically
scale the units being used so that they are in a human-read-
able format. The scaling units used for the current and peak
traffic columns can be altered by the scale command.

and compiler warnings.
The data for network statistics are still obtained via the kvm interface
if systat was started with the needed privileges, otherwise sysctls are
used. The reason for this is that with really many open sockets, the
sysctl method is probably slower, but it systat -netstat is probably not
really usable in either mode under these conditions.
