Please let's either proviude real, working implementations, or remove
the functions.

I don't like to see these either, but it's better than lying in the
face of the user.

Yes, let's do either (a) or (b). There is no other choice.

I am aware of this.

This still leaves the problem of the current "implementation" of  the
other  stubs. Please note that as is, we even have *random* behaviour
of the code, as the  functions  are  supposed  to  return  the  cache
status, but no return value gets loaded.
