Oh, and one other related thing on my wishlist is having libc export
all syscall stubs in WEAKASM _sys style so that use-fd-to-select-kernel
can work on static linked binaries which cannot use RTLD_NEXT.  I guess
another option would be to compile local syscall stubs, but it seems
easier to have them popping out of libc.
