Their system is based on:
    1. Mach "microkernel"
    2. New "arch" type that maps Linux to mach system calls (vm is provided
by Mach).
    3. Device drivers have two styles:
        1. Linux kernel  mmaps mach memory which allows Linux raw drivers but
no microkernel protection.
        2. Port Linux drivers into mach.  They have three generic device
drivers: char, block and net that map allow Linux access of mach drivers.

Linux runs as one mach task, allowing other mach tasks (such as RT type
tasks) to run simultaneously.  In theory, one should be able to run multiple
instances of Linux on the same CPU this way too.
