No. But that doesn't have very much to do with how you add the system
calls, only that they aren't in syscalls.master, right?
Right now, it seems you get something like:
syscall lkmnosys(0x14,0x0,0x800c5603,0xefbfd6cc,0x0)
errno 22 'Invalid argument'
which isn't that bad, even through the name and number would be
better. Should we add a sysctl (or something else) interface for
getting the syscall names? Moving the name into `struct sysent' seems
to me like it would make sense anyway.
