In that case - do you know how I can inspect the comparison it's doing? 
Since I'm already doing this for the open system call, I know that it's 
possible to write a function with the same definition. It seems in this 
case that I'm not matching the representation that cgo is expecting. I 
would therefore like to see what cgo thing it looks like so I can attempt 
to get a perfect match. Would that be possible?
