An IDL is an interface definition language. The most well-known is
CORBA. An IDL compiler takes a specification and generates stubs
that hide the transport details. In the case of [[microkernel/mach/MIG]], this
hides the marshalling and unmarshalling of parameters according
to [[microkernel/Mach]]'s semantics.
