you will need to make sure you are running a new afsd from the 1.3
head that knows how to use the alternate syscall interface.

practically all of the variations related to the sys call table
handling.  some had a 32/64 bit specific version, the ia64 needed
special trampoline code.  the list goes on and on.  eliminating 
the syscall patching should go a long way to making the code a bit
cleaner.  (yes i know pags pags pags)
