You might want to build your project on top of the Loadable Security
Modules patch at: http://lsm.immunix.org/ which allows you to focus on
the policy and implementation issues of your security system, and not on
things like "where to put this hook", and "how to grab a syscall".

As has been stated on this list many times, don't hook syscalls, it
isn't portable, or race free.

Just a suggestion :)
