The removed text long ago ceased to be accurate. Nowadays, the
dispatch table is autogenerated when building the kernel (via
the kernel makefile, arch/x86/entry/syscalls/Makefile).

.I /usr/include/asm/unistd.h
can be found in the Linux kernel source in the routine
.IR sys_xxx ().
-(The dispatch table for i386 can be found in
-.IR /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/kernel/entry.S .)
There are many exceptions, however, mostly because
older system calls were superseded by newer ones,
and this has been treated somewhat unsystematically.
