+4) In the spec but not implemented:
+
+- buffers
+
+5) fill out TODO/TBD stuff in the spec
+
+6) sort out exports.  All interface functions, all constants, all
+  type coercion functions
+
+7) variable-length functions > like execvp()? Do they take a list, or
+vector or either? "Either" sounds good. Which is to say, a sequence.
+
+8) In some cases, errno is used for "normal" exit, not just for
+exceptional exit. For example, EINTR, EAGAIN, reading or writing big
+buffers, etc... It may be more efficient to just compare two integers
+than going thru an exception mechanism that will be invoked everytime.
+
+9) proper alien definitions of structures [ possibly an sb-grovel
+problem, but the way we define calls exposes the problem -- see
+readdir() ] [ isn't this done? ]
+
+10) some functions (e.g. fdatasync, putenv) have a return value which
+is purely an error indicator.  Currently we're returning the 0 on
+success, but maybe it would make more sense for them to return
+(values).
