    Me too. Please remove the second one at least, kstat_read do not change
    ks_type.

    I went for the kstat.h only solution.
    Ok, I'm attaching the code, please check the preprocessor directives for
    the includes section, I don't much about defines created by the build
    system and its names.
    I'm using it right now on a linux machine, but I haven't tested yet on
    Solaris and BSDs. Today I tried to compile it on OpenSolaris, but after
    fighting with the packaging system and many other things I gave up and
    decided I won't try anymore. So, since I'd like to say the plugin is
    done after testing it, Solaris testers are wanted :P
    As soon as I can I will edit the wiki page, but first I want to have a
    closer look to the iptable plugin and see how many modifications are
    needed for IPv6 and then have an opinion about the single vs. double
    plugin approach.
    See you soon :)
    
    Regars,
    Marco
