well, so much for that plan :(  I don't happen to have an 11.23 system handy to 
check, but is the pstat field used under the #ifdef PSP_MAX_CACHE_LEVELS present 
in 11.23?  If so, we might find some other #define to trigger off of, unless 
someone feels compelled to write an autoconf macro to check for it at ./configure 
time. (something I don't feel quite qualified to do but would be happy to accept 
as a patch).
