hmm. that's super weird. at the very least i would expect them to use the low level syscall wrappers in the libc. unless they're avoiding linking libc at all, it seems super weird to be making syscalls directly from application code. i mean, what are they doing? implementing the syscall gate by hand. why would anybody do that?
