+/* Compile-time symbols that this file uses:
+
+   FIXUP_KERNEL_SYMBOL_ADDR()	Adjust address in returned struct nlist.
+   KERNEL_FILE			Pathname of the kernel to nlist.
+   LDAV_CVT()			Scale the load average from the kernel.
+				Returns a double.
+   LDAV_SYMBOL			Name of kernel symbol giving load average.
+   LOAD_AVE_TYPE		Type of the load average array in the kernel.
+				Must be defined unless one of
+				apollo, DGUX, NeXT, or UMAX is defined;
+				otherwise, no load average is available.
+   NLIST_STRUCT			Include nlist.h, not a.out.h, and
+				the nlist n_name element is a pointer,
+				not an array.
+   NLIST_NAME_UNION		struct nlist has an n_un member, not n_name.
+   LINUX_LDAV_FILE		[LINUX]: Name of file containing load averages.
+
+   Specific system predefines this file uses, aside from setting
+   default values if not emacs:
+
+   apollo
+   BSD				Real BSD, not just BSD-like.
+   DGUX
+   eunice			UNIX emulator under VMS.
+   hpux
+   NeXT
+   sgi
+   sequent			Sequent Dynix 3.x.x (BSD)
+   _SEQUENT_			Sequent DYNIX/ptx 1.x.x (SYSV)
+   sony_news                    NEWS-OS (works at least for 4.1C)
+   UMAX
+   UMAX4_3
+   VMS
+   LINUX			Linux: assumes /proc filesystem mounted.
+   				Support from Michael K. Johnson.
+
+   In addition, to avoid nesting many #ifdefs, we internally set
+   LDAV_DONE to indicate that the load average has been computed.
+
+   We also #define LDAV_PRIVILEGED if a program will require
+   special installation to be able to call getloadavg.  */
