I am wondering if some parts are missing from your ChangeLog

You apparently added in v3 a new 'flags' parameter to indirect syscall but no 
trace of this change in Changelog, and why it was added. This seems to imply a 
future multiplexor.

And no change in the test program reflecting this 'flags' new param, so it fails.

should be fd = syscall (__NR_indirect, &r, &i, sizeof (i), 0);

same here ?

and here.
