:Crud... I just figured out my answer to my question. You can't copyin from
:kernel space. Thank god I can remove the stackgap code with the new split
:syscalls.

Heh. I guess I wasn't clear enough in prior discussions. One of big
benefits of splitting the syscalls is that, yes, the emulation code can
call the kernel version after doing its own copyins and conversions, and
all the stackgap garbage can be scrapped.
Makes it a bit more fun, eh?
