Hi James,

Many thanks for picking this up...

This is the third time around for trying to get this into uClibc as
Mark Salter also pushed a patch set which got about as much feedback
(almost none) on the list as mine did.  His patchset, like yours,
preferred the "old" syscalls when present.

...and that gets me around to the question:  why should the "old"
syscalls be preferred?  I'm specifically asking this here because I'm
curious what the kernel developers' take on this is.

Regards,
Jonas
