Hi! After installing patchkit 0.2.4 I encountered a couple of problems:

1) top and w are broken. w says 'can't get namelist', top dumps core with
segmentation fault.

2) kernel compiling has changed in 0.2.4 patchkit. In vector.h, it now
defines masks (ttymask, biomask etc..). By default, it assign "sb0mask"
for my soundblaster driver. However, this doesn't work, because the sb-
driver doesn't know about thing called sb0mask. What mask should I 
define for it?

3) I thought some problems would go away by buildworld, but I don't have
enough space on disk to do it. What programs have changed, and should be
compiled again after pk 0.2.3?

 Thanks in advance,
 Marko
