Please forgive me if this is a tad off topic, but I would like to know
(before I build something myself)
If there are scripts, apps, emacs macros, etc that will run through a source
tree and identify all of the system calls and/or libc calls in a body of
code.  I would think this is a first step in porting any large body of code
to a new OS.  That way you can be sure to map all of the syscalls that the
App would be using to appropriate entry points in the Wombat and/or Iguana
processes.
I guess for input in addition to the source code, you would need some form
of definition database to identify which functions are actually
syscalls/libc calls for a particular OS version.

Does NICTA/OK-LAbs have some tools to do this? I would imagine that this is
a task done many times so there must be something out there that I'm not
aware of.
