Getting rid of kernel_interface.POSIX.cpp

Hi there,

I am currently in the process of making our libbe.so replacement to 
work on top of the new kernel, or rather investigating what needs to be 
done to do so.

While kernel_interface.POSIX.cpp (and the general approach behind it) 
is very useful for porting, is it planned to get rid of that extra 
level of indirection one day?

Also, we don't yet have a libstdc++ - and yet, unlike the original 
libbe.so, we have several components using it (IIRC only the sniffer in 
the storage kit). It would have been great if someone had thought about 
this particular dependency earlier...

Speaking of the Sniffer - what does it do there? I thought it was part 
of the Registrar and only used by the storage kit? Or is it common to 
both?

Bye,
   Axel.
