systat -vm shows "w" state procs, but swap is free

As of 2004.08.15.22.00.00 current kernel (with debugging config).
I'm not sure this is known issue or recent breakage.
When I'm running buildworld with nice(1), systat(1) -vm shows some "w"
state processes (approx 1 to 5). But swapinfo(8) shows no swap is
used.
Man page for systat(1) says "w" state is:
swapped out but desiring to run (`w').
Is there something wrong?
