Couple ideas come to mind (not sure how good / bad they are):

1) we write a module that can be loaded and calls the syscalls from within
the kernel with data formated properly.

2) we write a module that can force the setting of which syscall vector to
be used... ie, setup a sysctl value that can be toggled to the various
vectors and then have a set of *.c files to setup data properly and test?

hmm.. perhaps PEter wemm has a good thought or two
