  As you have noticed, there are some problems with the I/O libraries.  The
biggest one is probably with IOLink.  This contains the procedure MakeChan(),
which is supposed to create a new I/O channel.  However, the type ChanId is
an opaque type which is defined in another module, IOChan, so this isn't really
possible in a clean way since IOLink doesn't know what a ChanId is.  Evidently
these two modules were originally combined into one, and when they were later split
up someone forgot to put an AllocateChan() procedure in IOChan.
