The natural solution is to replace AmigaDOS with an alternate handler that
talks to UNIX and pretends to be AmigaDOS. xDThat should be *much* easier
than any of the alternatives, particularly given the ease by which you
can replace chunks of the Amiga operating system.

The easiest way of doing this would be to have a handler (UNIX:?) and
make UNIX:/usr/whoever sys:.
