Is this 7.0+ only? I run 6.3 and I see the following when I start it:

last pid: -1077944144;  loa  0.52,  0.28,  0.26;
                                                     up 11+15:31:33     11:33:05
0 processes:
CPU:   0.1% user,  0.6% nice, -0.7% system, -0.6% interrupt, -0.4% idle
Kernel: 1 intr
Mem:    235M Active, 458M Inact, 219M Wired, 42M Cache, 111M Buf, 39M Free
Swap:   3000M Total, 181M Used, 2819M Free, 6% Inuse
 sysctlnametomib: No such file or directory

And no processes.
