Well.. That is the whole reason we are going to use it. We need a way
to do thread-safe offset read's and write's.

FreeBSD 3.0 doesn't have pread()/pwrite() yet. And it seems that most
I/O isn't counted toward a thread's time slice. Our hope is that by
doing async I/O's we can get around that problem.

Unfortunately, it appears that the system call doesn't work.

Where does that code live?

I guess I'll open a bug report.
