Yeah, whatever, I don't mind what technique you use for the versionning,
ultimately, if the approach works, we can look at those details :-) We
-do- need the macro to strip the dummy argument though, unless we use
a slightly different technique which is to make the __sysno argument
itself 64-bit, which works as well I believe.

Cheers,
Ben.
