I looked at the code in m-intel386.h (since I kept being annoyed at the rather large "load average" values that loadst returned). Sure enough, there lots of magic in m-intel386.h that needed to be fixed. I made some changes and recompiled loadst and now it returns exactly the same values as the Xenix "w" command.
