It's more complicated than that. When poking around looking for what
DU does for posix.1b, I found numbers like 0xff64 and whatnot.

I sent a message off to Maddog asking for the complete list of new
syscalls, since they don't appear in /usr/include/syscall.h. I recall
that he forwarded the message off to someone in the DU group but I
never got a response.
