Hi,

Garret, I did git pull and applied your patch, gcc whined about missing
CHILD_STACK_SIZE... is it in your some other patch? IFor the time being I
added CHILD_STACK_SIZE into test.h, but is it what you wanted initially?

I can test clones for arm 32-bit (BeagleBoard/Cortex A8) and AMD64 (Debian 
64-bit)
environments. Sadly I do not have SPARCs, nor s390... 

br,
Hannu

Virtualization is moving to the mainstream and overtaking non-virtualized
environment for deploying applications. Does it make network security 
easier or more difficult to achieve? Read this whitepaper to separate the 
two and get a better understanding.
