The futex adds a unique and useful feature which can also be interesting for certain
apps/libraries other than glibc. The API is a bit ugly, mostly because of historical reasons
it seems.

But what they seem to be wanting to do here is providing a userspace wrapper in glibc for the
indirect variant of a syscall, and that's just plain silly.
