Sure ;-)

Oops - doesn't look good. Could it be that the system you compiled 
hpux-meminfo on is a different OS version than the one you're running it
on ? Still I'd expect the code to be runnable across the two.

The obvious thing to try is to compile it on the machine where it
fails - I know that might be easier said than done.

One thing you could try: There's a bug in the hpux-meminfo tool, the
line that reads:
    pstat_getdynamic(&dbuf, sizeof(sbuf), 1, 0);
should be
    pstat_getdynamic(&dbuf, sizeof(dbuf), 1, 0);

i.e. an "d" instead of an "s" in the "sizeof(Xbuf)". You could try
fixing this and recompiling the tool, although it shouldn't cause the 
problem you see.

Yeah, it doesn't like doing a divide by zero. Patch attached.
