 src/bin/sysinfo/sysinfo.py.in has statement if running as non-root:

 {{{
 NOTE: You have to run this program as the root user so that it can
       collect all the information it requires. Some information is
       only available to the root user.
 }}}

 I believe this is platform specific (like Linux using netstat -p).
 But for NetBSD and some others running as root has no difference.

 I think some setting in src/lib/python/isc/sysinfo/sysinfo.py can define
 if root is desired or not and the tool only output the note if set.
