1 This subsystem ensures that we can always use a certain core set of 
2 functions and types, that are either provided by the OS or by replacement 
3 functions / definitions in this subsystem. The aim is to try to stick 
4 to POSIX functions in here as much as possible. Convenience functions 
5 that are available on no platform at all belong in other subsystems
6 (such as LIBUTIL).
