A few things:

- Please don't name files 'kludge_something'; this makes it impossible
  to implement things properly without renaming files.
- Don't share C files between rpcrt4 and rpcss, just copy the stuff
  you need (and at least atomicity.c doesn't seem necessary at all,
  you could just as well make mutex calls directly).
- Please get rid of the various #ifdefs.
- It would be better to put the README documentation directly in
  rpcss_main.c, people don't notice README files in subdirectories.
