kernel/acct.c and testing for accounting still running?

I ran into a bit of flapping with my init.d acct lately, and in tracing
why, I noticed that there seems to be absolutely no way that the kernel
exposes to show that it's running any accounting.

Could we expose acct_list in sysfs or procfs, as uid:0, gid:0, perms
0600?
