 I concur.  Further, if systrace.h shan't be bundled, the systrace.4 manual 
 page should be modified, as it refers to nonexistent entities (the header 
 file is not explicitly mentioned, but structures, macros & ioctl values 
 are invalid).  Ergo the systrace device has a closed interface (restricted 
 to systrace.1).  This doesn't seem correct to me; the manual page refers 
 to /dev/systrace for "userland processes, such as systrace(1)".  But the 
 device's API is currently unavailable.  Is there a reason for not exposing 
 it?  If, for instance, there are security issues with systrace.h, why is 
 the device still being exported, and why is systrace.1 compiling with it?
