How would you do that with a single shared strcture, w/out adding in all
signal paths the knowledge of the structure?

You said it yourself: each individual wrapper would look like this.
Generalization really isn't possible, you'll have each wrapper syscall
looking different. This means there is no reason to try coming up
with some overly complicated data structure which would only be useful
if the processing of that data structure could be centralized.
