no.  LFS controls the API that uClibc exports to people that build against it.  
internally, we're free to use any syscall that's available.

we do the same thing with getdents because the 64bit version not only extends 
some types, but it includes some fields that the 32bit doesn't.  this is pretty 
much the same reason Khem needs to use stat64 here.
