Thanks!

According to the documentation, every sysctlbyname() call could alternatively
be done through a sysctl() call with an appropriate 'int mib[]' array.
But the values in this array:

  vm.stats.vm.v_free_count
  { CTL_VM, 0x7ffff7bb, 0x7ffff7b9, 0x7ffff790 }

  vm.stats.vm.v_inactive_count
  { CTL_VM, 0x7ffff7bb, 0x7ffff7b9, 0x7ffff78b }

(that I got by invoking sysctlnametomib()) are apparently not defined by the
include files. So, sysctlbyname actually gives access to more information
than sysctl does.
