(In reply to Mark Linimon from comment #1)

This was fixed in 2014 by HPS.
The problem occurred due to someone had mistakenly tried to handle sysctl
values without copyin/copyout calls. On i386 and amd64 hardware direct
references using pointers may work, but on ppc and sparc64 copyin and copyout
are needed to move data between the user and kernel address spaces.
