Sorry, but "OF" stand for?...

What I've in mind was coding our own open_module_list() & co functions.
It should not be so difficult, if opendir() is available from ppc kernel...

<hope>
As far as we don't have to code get_module() and put_module().
We don't, right?

If userland build don't include net_server.c, it's a proof 
that's broken!

Or... or David start to move to a debug-purpose only userland stack, so 
the main() should be in the testing app, which will link against 
the stack, coming in shared library form?

David?
