Hi,
Just a heads-up to inform you that I am working on a
port of glibc to MenuetOS (www.menuetos.org). On the
hardware side it shouldn't be too much trouble as
MenuetOS is i386-only. But its resemblance to Unix is
currently about zero (whether or not this is
intentional I'm not sure). With the current system
calls provided by the MenuetOS kernel a port is
unlikely, but I am working with the kernel-developers
to add necessary functionality.
Currently I am using a GNU/Linux system as a build
host.
Any help provided will be welcome!
Even if the port is successful it won't make into the
main release for several reasons - probably you guys
wouldn't want it and I and other developers don't
agree with assignment of copyright to the FSF. But
thats no big deal.
Cheers,
Kirk Alexander
