Please check before suggesting programs like ps.  ps uses sysctls only
when run on a live system.

Do you have a working /dev/ksyms?  At least vmstat and netstat I use
regularly on embedded boards with no /netbsd.

At this stage I still believe that savecore is the only program that
cares where the kernel is, as long as you have working ksyms.
