I have several problems with the stream interface.  Solutions or suggestions
to any or all of them would be much appreciated:

	a)  stream_$inquire is not able to inquire files of type
	    dp_dpd (created by dialog) and mbx.  For the former,
	    stream_$inquire returns a "not yet implemented" message
	    and the latter, "no active servers" message is returned.
	    It is also not able to inquire about files with UNIX style
	    file names (with special characters and uppercase letters).
	    A temporary fix for the last problem is to quote the name
	    string.

	b)  The insert file "/sys/ins/type_uids.ins.c" declares
	    some uid types, all as external.  Looks like they are
	    defined somewhere else.  However, nowhere their values
	    are documented (each is a structure with two elements.
	    I found the values using the debugger).  The type socket_$uid
	    is not defined anywhere, and the bind complains rightfully so.
	    Also, all the UNIX type files (files with special characters
	    or uppercase letters in their names) do not have seem to have
	    a defined type.

	c)  I need to access the ACLs of some files from within a program.
	    In addition, I need to set them in a special way from within
	    the same program.  However, I can't find any system calls to
	    do the job.  Hopefully that information is not propreitary.
