[RFA] struct lwp in bsd-kvm.c


Modern NetBSD (-current and 2.0 and later) have a struct lwp that
holds execution state, including the pcb. This patch adds an autoconf
test to check for the presence of struct lwp, and changes the "kvm
proc" command to add the offset of l_addr in struct lwp to the address
supplied, if they are found. This makes the command name slightly
misleading, but it doesn't seem worth renaming.

This is necessary to even compile bsd-kvm.c on modern NetBSD systems,
as struct proc no longer has a p_addr field.

OK to commit?
(I'm not clear what the protocol is for dealing with regenerating
configure and config.in)

	* configure.in: Test for struct lwp in <sys/lwp.h>
	* bsd-kvm.c (bsd_kvm_proc_cmd): If HAVE_STRUCT_LWP is defined, use
	the offset of l_addr in struct lwp.
