*** Please type your report below this line ***
procinfo on alpha does not correctly report times for user, nice,
etc...: rather all appear as zero.
e.g.
~(0)$ /usr/bin/procinfo

(on an XP1000, similar behaviour on a 433au)
This problem appeared in
02_procinfo_paging_swap_disk_statistics_on_2.6.dpatch.
Suggested patch (tested on the XP1000, works fine).
I have restricted the change to Alpha, as I lack the knowledge of why
the change was made originally.
