 It appears someone has commit'ed, (as in just a few days ago), pread()
 and pwrite() interfaces to the 4.0 kernel.
 
 That is great... HOWEVER... They didn't add man pages or prototypes to 
 the headers.
 
 Without the prototypes in the headers, it is very difficult to use
 those functions in a nice way.
 
 Can someone please do this?
 
 Probably just means adding the following to "unistd.h":
 
 ssize_t pread(int fd, void *buf, size_t nbyte, off_t offset);
 ssize_t pwrite(int fd, const void *buf, size_t nbyte, off_t offset);
