Hi Harry,

Talking about future releases, is the test distro from 8/23 the current latest one?
When do you think it could be released?

I wish I knew :-)
Really it depends on when the last few issues get resolved.
So it is only bugs and testing that are holding up a release.

Regards
Greg

    The clone.S code like that is no longer in the newer version
    of uClibc that will be in future dist release. The Makefiles
    have been cleaned up so that they use $(CROSS_COMPILE)-
    as the tool name prefix (unless I missed some :-)

    Greg
