IIRC, I only had to do this with open() and mkdir(). The rest was already defined in libposix and I only had to make adjustments. I also preserved all the dirent functions in libc (being somewhat similar to the FILE I/O functions, on another level of abstraction) and moved them to their own file (i.e. dirent.c).
