>Description:
      sysctl returns strange unrelated variables after changing kern.maxfiles and kern.maxfilesperproc and rebooting

here's a sample:
# sysctl -a | grep files
kern.maxfiles: 16384
kern.maxfilesperproc: 12288
kern.openfiles: 14016
<118>kern.maxfiles:
<118>kern.maxfilesperproc:
<118>kern.maxfiles:
<118>kern.maxfilesperproc:
<118>kern.maxfiles:
<118>kern.maxfilesperproc:
<118>kern.maxfiles:
<118>kern.maxfilesperproc:
p1003_1b.mapped_files: 0
>How-To-Repeat:
      put the values i did in /etc/sysctl.conf and then reboot

then type sysctl -a |grep files
