This ..._ex() naming is really horrible. What do you do when you need to extend it again? Call it ..._ex2()? ..._ex_ex()?
Unix solved that naming problem in a much more elegant way a long time ago, by simply appending the number of parameters. So we have wait3() and wait4(); dup(), dup2(), and the new dup3(); pipe() and pipe2(); inotify_init() and inotify_init1(); and so on (see http://udrepper.livejournal.com/20407.html for how recent some of these are).
