...but I just remembered that there's an IObase variable that gets set 
and stuffed somewhere that platforms can use to determine where the I/O 
needs to go (set by MapDomainMemory I think), but if we're doing search 
and replace on APIs we may as well fix them up properly and get rid of 
globals like that.
