Relation of syscall names to System.map

I was recently going through syscalls I'm auditing and matching them up
to symbols in System.map starting with 'sys_'. I noted that the two
don't appear to be completely related. The system in question is RHEL 4
x86_64. Specifically I noted:

* sys_stime is in System.map, but 'stime' is not recognised by auditctl
* sys_umount2 is not in System.map, but is recognised by auditctl

Am I looking for a relationship which doesn't exist? Is there a better
way to get a definitive, locally generated list of all auditable
syscalls on a particular machine?

Thanks,

Matt
