ukfs_init() intializes the library and must be called once per process
using ukfs.
ukfs_modload() is used at runtime to dynamically load a library which
contains a file system module. For this to succeed, the rump(3) library
and the module targetted must be compiled with compatible kernel versions
and the application must be dynamically linked. Additionally, since this
routine does not handle dependencies, all the dependencies of the library
must be loaded beforehand. The routine returns -1 for fatal error, 0 for
dependency failure and 1 for success.
ukfs_modload_dir() loads all rump(3) file system modules in directory
dirname. It looks for libraries which begin with librumpfs_ and end in
