...indows? And HOW do you expect the backend to implement these? By calling "malloc"/"HeapAlloc", "write"/"WriteFile"? This is what the C library is for, it provides a set of independent functions that are reasonably well defined and reasonably portable between archiectures. If you are compiling something different than C, you'll need to implement something similar [and perhaps, like I did, interface to the C runtime library even in a non-C language with thin wrapper functions]. Sorry if I misunderstood your idea, as David says, maybe you need to explain a bit...

I have an old Samba network that uses unencrypted passwords. At the time, the posts were running win95. These days they are running win98 for the most part, but introducing new machines onto the network means fiddling with the EnablePlainTextPassword registry key. So currently, all the machines use plain-text passwords. I want to modify them all to use encrypted passwords. Naturally, I want to do

I know, that's the problem. We can assume all of the system calls as runtime functions: such as I/O, allocations etc. and create a set of function implemented for all the architectures. For example, let's think about the mem allocation again: we can provide a primitive function with the same name for all archs (e.g. __alloc() ) and then people can include this function __alloc() in their
