Googling revealed a few fairly uninformative sites.  However, an
effort[1] to implement POSIX APIs in Java did show up.  However, they
did not have code, just a (useful to me) list of functions in the POSIX
standard.

I'm presuming DllImport and P/Invoke aren't the preferred methods here? 
I looked at System.Net.Socket, since that would appear to be a task
similar to implementing POSIX APIs.  It uses InternalCall, which I'm
presuming (C# In A Nutshell is not so clear on this) is implemented
within the interpreter.  I poked through mono and found the file
mono/io-layer/sockets.c which appears to be the internal implementation
of the Sockets API.  Would the POSIX implementation look similar to
this?  Is there someplace all this is documented or am I on my own?
