[hobbit] Solaris memory reporting

Curious thing I noticed today, with the 7-6-2006 client snapshot... I
just compiled the hobbit client on a solaris 8 box, and everything is
working fine. However, BB is reporting 83% swap usage (which is the
same value returned by swapdf), yet the Hobbit client is reporting
only 77% swap usage.
The solaris machine has both a swap partition, as well as a swap file
(in /tmp). What method does the Hobbit client use to determine swap
usage? Since Hobbit reports more free swap than BB, I'm assuming that
means BB is only looking at the swap slice and not the combined swap
slice + swap file to generate the swap usage.
