+ <youpi> braunr: btw, we are missing the symbol in mach/Versions
+ <braunr> youpi: what symbol ?
+ <youpi> so the libc-provided RPC stub is not available
+ <youpi> mach_printf
+ <youpi> -f
+ <braunr> it's a system calll
+ <braunr> not exported
+ <youpi> s/RPC/system call/
+ <braunr> that's expected
+ <youpi> libc does provide stubs for system calls too
+ <braunr> yes but not for this one
+ <youpi> I don't see why we wouldn't want to include it
+ <youpi> ?! it does
+ <braunr> it's temporary
+ <braunr> oh
+ <braunr> there must be automatic parsing during build
+ <youpi> sure
+ <braunr> nice
+
+ <braunr> youpi: if we're going to make this system call exported by glibc,
+ i should change its interface first
+ <braunr> it was meant as a very quick-and-dirty hack and directly accesses
+ the caller's address space without going through a special copy-from-user
+ function
+ <braunr> not very portable
