My recollection of the last round of discussion was that you were
asked to implement these in our base, then wrap the linux versions. If
it's trivial to implement, it should probably be done that way first.

I also think you should take the offer collaboration with the Isilon
guys. Getting the benefit of their experience is a good thing. :)
