What:	sys_sysctl

When:	January 2007

Why:	The same information is available through /proc/sys and that is the

	interface user space prefers to use. And there do not appear to be

	any existing user in user space of sys_sysctl.  The additional

	maintenance overhead of keeping a set of binary names gets

	in the way of doing a good job of maintaining this interface.
