So you want to run eCos as a linux process, on a iPAQ running Linux?
The first question i have to ask is why? eCos runs native on
iPAQ. What do you want linux there for? This setup is going to make
your life hard.

The synth target only works on i386 based architectures at the
moment. To make system calls into the Linux kernel, you need some
assembly language. This is obviously not portable.
If you really want to get this setup working, take a look at
hal/synth/i386linux/current. You need to write equivalent code for
armlinux.
