38 * This function uses a presently undocumented interface to the kernel
39 * to walk the tree and get the type so it can print the value.
40 * This interface is under work and consideration, and should probably
41 * be killed with a big axe by the first person who can find the time.
42 * (be aware though, that the proper interface isn't as obvious as it
43 * may seem, there are various conflicting requirements.
