>Description:
Our Linux compatibility module does not appear to be handling UNIMPL
syscalls correctly, causing at least one application (Cedega, aka WineX)
to crash on start. 

To the best of Peter Hunnisett's knowledge (peter@transgaming.com), the
default behavior should be to return ENOSYS for an UNIMPL syscall. This
is how Linux behaves. The following patch effectively does this and
corrects Cedega from crashing at start. It is now possible to run a few
Windows games using Cedega (Linux version) with this patch.

Without this patch, FreeBSD sends a signal and _then_ returns ENOSYS.
