Note that if you do this, we will not be able to trap syscalls made by
32-bit programs. That means...
- 32-bit versions of programs that need to make AFS syscalls will not
work at all (the /proc ioctl interface is not currently available for
32-bit programs).
- If you use a 32-bit version of a program that calls setgroups(), you
will lose your PAG.
There is code on the way that will allow us to properly deal with the
situation where ia32_sys_call_table is not exported. What I have appears
to work, but requires additional testing before it can be integrated into
OpenAFS.
