I don't quite remember what the outcome of this discussion was the last
time, but what is your plan for the deprecated syscalls like the
legacy syscalls you add here?

Have you tried changing uClibc and/or glibc so you don't need them?
Are you planning to remove them soon once they are not needed any
more?

What about the syscalls that are not needed but you just get from
common code (e.g. oldumount, time, old_readdir, ...)?
