-Bugs that need fixing:
-
- - 'ln -n' has been disabled for this release, till we can fix a memory
-    corruption bug.
- - fix 'cp' (or test suite script) so that it passes the last item in
-    the test suite.
- - ps dirent race bug (need to stat the file before attempting chdir)
- - Make 'ln -s /tmp/file .' work the way GNU ln does (i.e. makes a link to 
-    /tmp/file in the current directory, rather then trying and failing to create
-    a symlink named "." in the current working directory).
- - Prune sfdisk
- - Graft fdisk instead
-
-
-We will rework these to use libc regex functions instead (as per the mailing
-list discussion):
- - 'grep foo$ file' doesn't work
- - 'grep *foo file' segfaults

-Linux 2.4.x kernels
-
-BusyBox 0.45 currently will not work with the Linux 2.4.x kernels.  
-I know of the following problems:
-
-1) The sysinfo syscall has changed what it does (binary incompatable), breaking
-    init and free.
-2) BusyBox NFS support is broken with 2.4.x (needs to be adjusted for NFSv3 and
-    kernel header changes).
-3) mount,umount,and df are all broken by the "none" entries for fake filesystems
-    such as the shared mem one.  Al Viro claims these will be disappearing soon...
-
-I made a kernel patch that reverts the sysinfo changes
-    http://kernelnotes.org/lnxlists/linux-kernel/lk_0006_01/msg00619.html
-
-and I have been fighting with Alan Cox to get these changes fixed in a binary
-compatable way, but Alan has so far not been very receptive.  I am planning on
-appealing to Linus (when he gets back from vacation) and then going with
-whatever he decides...
-
-So my thought is, 2.4.x just isn't ready for BusyBox to target it, and even if
-it was, BusyBox isn't ready yet either.  Seems to me like this will not be
-ready for a while, and we should just not worry about it yet.
-
-As long as I have BB_FEATURE_NFSMOUNT turned off, everything compiles cleanly
-for me with linux2.4.0test1-ac22-riel (i.e. I don't see the freeramdisk.c
-problem you reported).  I use Debian potato (gcc 2.95.2, GNU libc 2.1.3).
-Of course, as noted above, compiling != working.
