the good news is that the new structure that they've added:
struct niovec
{
void __user *iov_base;
__kernel_size_t iov_len;
__kernel_loff_t iov_off; /* NEW */
};
allows one to do a very limited version of list I/O through the kernel.
minor step in the right direction.

I'd like to fix this before we do our next release. Let me take a
crack at it.
