    Yep - realized this when I took a closer look.
    One thing striked my mind. It is correct that new things gets added
    to i386 first these days?
    To me it looks like x86_64 is growing larger than i386 among the
    developers these days so using asm-x86_64/unistd.h could be a better choice?
