FPC's *nix interface is pretty much entirely based on Posix, only
with a few naming conventions:

* all Posix functions are prefixed with fp (to avoid naming clashes
between e.g. Pascal's close and Posix' close)
* the things Marco mentioned

In quite a few cases "var" parameters are used instead of pointers, that's the other major difference I found when porting from delphi. Maybe those were in the socket functions. I remember stuff like getsockopt in winsock that used pointers
where in fp it used getsocketoptions and var parameters.
