I don't mind all normally run programs using the new API, it's just
where someone runs 'ps' or 'dmesg' with -N/-M that we need to use the
kvm interface. And, as such, conditional compilation is not the
desired solution. Both features have to be compiled in, but the one
that is used would depend on whether -N/-M is specified or not.
