Hi Uwe, in NT the native (system call) interface is through ntdll. There are a number of subsystems implemented on top of that: the win32 subsystem, the posix subsystem, and the OS/2 subsystem. It's possible however to write an app that just uses ntdll; this is a "native" NT app.
This page has a pretty good explanation: http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/info/native.shtml

There are a bunch of (currently a little messy) headers for native API functions in the ReactOS tree. Also, check Gary Nebbett's book for more info.
