Returning 0 would make more sense, so I'll do that.  I can also add a warning, 
but that causes a minimum of two warnings to print every system call since the 
doSyscall() function gathers the values of the system call registers from 
indices 0 to 5 every time a system call is made.  This is only used for a debug 
statement, though; is there a reason it does this even when debugging is off?
