How about:

int control(int request, ...)
almost exact implementation of ioctl but with the file handle omitted.
And have it use errno.h for return values? This way most of the work is
done and it will work in a way most (if not all) of us are already
accustomed to?
Say yes and you'll have an all out patch tomorrow... any ideas, comments
etc appreciated...
