Talk of the devil, is there a chance any of these syscalls could make it into
in the future?:

nonblcok_read()
nonblock_write()
http://cr.yp.to/unix/nonblock.html

O_HONESTBLOCKING
http://cr.yp.to/unix/asyncdisk.html

disablenetwork(void)
http://cr.yp.to/unix/disablenetwork.html

Would save many people many headaches!
