I've looked over it several times already; all I see is that sys_open is
call number 45 (IIRC) in the table (osf_open is 5, IIRC, and on the x86
sys_open is 5 as well). But I can't find the definition of sys_open
itself. I can find the definitions of other syscalls, but not this one.

Have any ideas?

thanks,
