Yes, I think I found that thread yesterday.  I am trying it on the 5.x
series and I notice that the proc pointer argument of a syscall has
become a thread pointer.  That would, of course, explain the horrible
crashes.  It is just a shame that I discovered that after my assignment
was handed in, ah well such is life.  

Thanks for your help,
Simon
