Shouldn't there be some interface specification first?

Correct me if I'm wrong but as I understand it, the pager should use some 
functions provided by the kernel (for instance sys$morecore()). I assume that 
the interface between pager and kernel is to be built upon the standard L4 IPC 
mechanism. If so, message specifications (label, parameters, etc) would be very 
helpful.
