This directory contains various low-level utility functions.

This library should not depend upon any other parts of this application.
Indeed, every effort should be made to make sure each module is
entirely self contained.

Low-level operations that are being coded more than once in the application
should be moved here, if possible, and if appropriate.  That's one primary
point of this library -- to eliminate some redundant code.

The other reason for this library is to provide a simple place to "plug-in"
replacements for missing system functions, such as strerror() on some SunOS
systems.
