I should have added a David Wheeler quote as executive summary to the developer 
section:

  "All problems in computer science can be solved by another level of 
indirection"

meaning all it does is call RTAPI functions indirectly through the RTAPI switch 
trampoline, not as directly linked functions like in a library as before; you 
laad the right switch with the right functions linked _to the switch_ them at 
runtime, you get a new set of functions (or flavor in this case).

Everything else is environmental noise.
