Kernel check not working on Ubuntu 8.04 x86_64

[rainer]

The kernel check seems not to work on Ubuntu 8.04 x86_64. Reported problems (by S. Clormann):

as well as the following:

sudo /sbin/insmod samhain_kmem.ko; sudo ./kern_head > sh_ks.h; sudo 
/sbin/rmmod samhain_kmem

get_dispatch: did not find sys_call_table in system_call code
** This indicates that either your System.map does not match
** the currently running kernel, or that your System.map does
** not provide the required information, and thus use of
** the --with-kcheck option is not possible
kern_head: get_dispatch failed

First couple of fixes committed as changeset [346].

Ubuntu 8.04 x86_64 has /dev/kmem, but it's not usable. Need to check usability in configure. Fixes commited as changeset [348], should work now.
