You should of uses anoncvs instead of eCos 2.0. There has been some
changes, so there is a slight chance it does not work.  Please run
your test against anoncvs. I also suggest you try runing the test
program tm_basic which is part of the kernel packages. Its a pritty
good all round test for a port.

When you are happy they work with anoncvs email them to
ecos-patches. I will then take a look at the source code.
