I finally had the PIDs roll over on an experimental kernel, so had to mend
my SysRq-N to work with that. It now sends the signal to the current
process.

This also fixes a problem where the program which locked up was not the
last one to have been run - it will always be the current one when it is
locking up the kernel.

The patch, against sysrq.c 1.4, should be attached.
