To be honest, I think that things should go further than this.  People running 
OpenSim environments may well want to
implement LSL functions themselves server-side which do not start with either 
the ll or os prefixes.

Thanks, Whump. I appreciate you looking into this so quickly.

There are 30-ish functions in OpenSim's scripting with the os prefix. If we could have a way to ensure that any function with the os prefix in its name could be passed to the sim, that would work.

Thanks
