variable. Parsing worked, but future requests for the variable (such as
by the sysenv command) returned truncated data. This caused the system
(e.g. setup script) to think the amount of memory was tiny, and caused
the enabling of swapspace, while it is unnecessary.

workaround hasn't been done.)
* Removed some variants of the SYS_GETINFO calls from the kernel;
replaced them with new PM and utils libary functionality. Fixed
bugs in utils library that used old get_kenv() variant.
* Implemented a buffer in the kernel to gather random data.
Memory driver periodically checks this for /dev/random.
A better random algorithm can now be implemented in the driver.
Removed SYS_RANDOM; the SYS_GETINFO call is used instead.
* Remove SYS_KMALLOC from the kernel. Memory allocation can now
be done at the process manager with new 'other' library functions.

libutils, or redefine their own function. Assertions are done via the standard
<assert.h> functionality.

The call works. Permission check, restriction of outstanding notifications
