Yes, this might be a problem, as the configure script is calling sysctl
to guess if vm.nswapdev is available, and then goes on to use the struct
xswdev.

Could you please take a quick look at
work/symon/platform/FreeBSD/conf.sh and tell me of other problems you
see with this approach?

What's the best way to detect struct xswdev other than grepping through
/usr/include?

PS: I totally forgot to mention UID 115 in the PR. I'd like to get that
UID reserved for symon. Thanks.
