That is, we can have native and compat FreeBSD system calls, but Linux system calls are always compat and never native, whether the emulation is for the same arch or not. Explicit suffix makes things clearer. But that's just my opinion. A public mailing list may be a better place to discuss this further. -- Andriy Gapon
