well, just as background info, this is the wrapper around a single assembly instruction which calls system firmware and takes 9 CPU registers for input and 9 CPU registers for output parameters. This definition by platform architecture won't change in the near future, but the good news is with Antons change the wrapper will look much nicer. Gruss / Regards . . .
