> glibc

This puts an unnecessary burdon upon kernel platform maintainers.
They should not be required to go through the work and time of getting
together a sane enough build environment to build the current glibc
sources.

What we want is a self contained directory of small tests that
exercise the syscalls directly and do not have any dependency
on any large source base or installed libraries.

If I remember correctly, the folks who did EPOLL did exactly this
and the syscall additions were trivial to test as a result.
