Upon further searching the mailinst archives, I find that this is an old
(open) bug #1484814
that fortunately has a workaround.  (./configure --without-kmem-usage)

That bug mentioned 'nlist', and I remembered seeing that warning message
when the
daemon powered up:

"nlist err: neither proc nor _proc found."

In the end... that bug entry should probably (at the very least) be closed
with with
the suggested workaround.
