Now that glibc is basically not adding any new system call wrappers, how about publishing an "official" system call glue library as part of the kernel distribution, along with the uapi headers? I don't think it's reasonable to expect people to keep using syscall(__NR_XXX) for all new functionality, especially as the system grows increasingly sophisticated capabilities (like the new mount API, and hopefully the new process API) outside the strictures of the POSIX process.
