We don't really need to export struct proc now that we have struct kinfo_proc, do we? The few userland libraries and programs that still need it (basically libkvm and gdb - libkvm consumers such as top only need to have it declared, not defined) could define something like _NEED_STRUCT_PROC before including <sys/proc.h>. One other thing worth pointing out is that there is no reason for <sys/user.h> to include <sys/proc.h>. It just needs to declare struct proc as an opaque structure. Also, <sys/user.h> currently pulls in a lot of other headers such as <sys/_lock.h> and <sys/_mutex.h> that are needed only because <sys/proc.h> depends on them.
