1. I would need to have cp437 and cp850 in iconv. Otherwise mtools
cannot accesss fat filesystems, meaning syslinux is broke. I know iconv
overhaul is scheduled for 1.1.4 with hopefully getting the table
generation code published. But I think these few legacy codepages
should be added as a bug fix.
2. Possibly also sysconf() fixes: mapping table 0 to return value -1,
and fixing LONG_BIT should be done.
3. I also think having CFI for at least syscall_cpi should be done.
Debugging without that is a pain.
4. Other items in my wish list is "sendmmsg() and recvmmsg()" but as
discussed it's tricky.
5. And I also had the question if for NEEDED dependencies constructors
should be topologically sorted.
1-3 being 'high' priority.
