I understand what you mean. It's just that I object on principle to this notion that using system calls is "wrong" or "something normal people aren't supposed to do" as if the libc programmers have special privileges. It's these constant warnings about and fearmongering around the system calls that made me want to use them in the first place.
The warnings etc. are for people who, more likely than not, are using a libc implementation that depends upon its own wrapping of syscalls. As such, they are entirely appropriate.
Do they apply to all possible uses of syscalls? They do not.
