I don't understand. These are normal syscalls.
and (b) using -1..-4 for the syscall numbers works out quite nicely
for the code in entry.S. It adds just a couple of instructions to the
execution path.
Those additional instructions are totally unnecessary.
Hm, I though it would be preferable to keep syscalls that are specific
to m68k (in the sense that no other target requires them) separate from
the ones implementing standard unix/linux functionality.
If the consensus is that the new syscalls should received 331..334
numbers, that would only simplify the implementation.
