    They should have the real argument types.  You don't have to pull in
    other header files to declare structural pointers.  This will suffice:
    /*
     * sys/syscall1.h
     */
    struct sockaddr;
    int blah(struct sockaddr *sa, ...);

:Also, should these second level syscall functions be prototyped using
:arguments of type caddr_t instead of (struct sockaddr *) so that we
:don't have to pull in the socket headers, etc... if we don't need them?
:
:I forgot to mention, we need the header to provide the second level
:syscall prototypes for the emulation code.  Otherwise, these symbols
:could be static.
