I don't understand.  These are normal syscalls.

and (b) using -1..-4 for the syscall numbers works out quite nicely
for the code in entry.S.  It adds just a couple of instructions to the
execution path.

Those additional instructions are totally unnecessary.

Hm, I though it would be preferable to keep syscalls that are specific to m68k (in the sense that no other target requires them) separate from the ones implementing standard unix/linux functionality.

If the consensus is that the new syscalls should received 331..334 numbers, that would only simplify the implementation.
