I really hope that this is the last time function/variable naming for
the L4 API will be discussed (on the other hand, every specification
needs to have some bikesheds, right? ;-) If people like the other way
of naming they can simply have some header file that redefines the
names.  E.g.:

   #define L4_SpaceControl      l4_space_control
   #define L4_ReplyWait         l4_reply_wait

So, can we please let these silly non-problems rest?
