- are added to the method vtable, including static and non-virtual methods.

- remoting code may depend on the current layout: such code should be fixed as well.

- | POSIX bindings.
- | The Mono.POSIX assembly is a project to create a binding to
- the various low-level calls in Unix which are not available
- thought he regular assemblies in .NET.
-
- The work should be done in two steps: one step is doing the
- low-level binding for the system call, and another possibly is
- to expose .NET-level objects like Streams for common patterns:
- for example Streams for socketpairs.
-
-
- - Complete the bindings for all POSIX calls.

-
- Design a glue layer, because the various low-level
- structures and values differ from operating system to
- operating system, so we must do the translation from
- our own set of definitions to the OS definitions.
