i suspect the big difference with most of these scripts is the editing
of the name_to_sysnum.  however, i dont like this 'each release gets a
different syscall number'.  it would be nice if afs would probe for an
empty slot in the syscall table and the userspace utilities would find
a use this syscall number.  at the very least, the userspace binaries 
should do this.

it should be moved to obselete.  there are better choices out their now
(like cfengine) for this type of thing.
