I want to note (to the public, not to Doug, since he knows this) that  
this is because fc3 (and the upcomming fc4) wants to work differently,  
when the linux kernel version is set to 2.6.x (compared to our current  
default of 2.4.x). We first need to implement some more syscalls in  
the linuxolator until we can bump the linux kernel version without  
breakage somewhere else.

So if you use this, you are in a "you have to know what you are  
doing"-situation.

Bye,
Alexander.
