based on patches by orc and Isaac Dunham, with some fixes. sys/io.h
exists and contains prototypes for these functions regardless of
whether the target arch has them; this is a bit unorthodox but I don't
think it will break anything. the function definitions do not exist
unless the appropriate SYS_* syscall number macro is defined, which
should make sure configure scripts looking for these functions don't
find them on other systems.
presently, sys/io.h does not have the inb/outb/etc. port io
macros/functions. I'd be surprised if ioperm/iopl are useful without
them, so they probably need to be added at some point in appropriate
bits/io.h files...
