Thanks Bob, but some applications don't use conditional compiling and
simply use code like this:
============
if (uClinux) {
*pid = vfork();
} else {
*pid = fork();
}
============
Will the cross-compiler go ahead and compile that type of code?
Currently, it refuses to proceed because fork() is not available on
non-MMU CPU's.
Thank you.
