	I'm using chrootkit from fresh ports update (v4.3). Results are as:

System 1 on 4.9-STABLE:
nothing found

System 2 on 4.10-BETA:
chfn, chsh, date infected

System 3 on 5.2.1-RELEASE-p4:
date infected, stops (freezes) at checking 'lkm'

strace shows:
wait4(-1, Process 610 attached - interrupt to quit

	Systems are behind two firewalls, with only ssh allowed (5.x) or
ftp, ssh, smtp, www, pop3 and https allowed (4.x).
