Haha, of course. :facepalm_emoji:

Aha, that explains why redefining gives us an error, because we're
defining it to the literal 386 whereas the system header is defining it
to the __NR value.

Is there a reason to use the SYS_ name?

Typically we just use the __NR value directly, and that would avoid any
problems with redefinition I think, as long as we're using the same
value as the system header (which we always should be).

eg:
