Patch from Mike Snitzer to fix return codes.
"I have a need to _really_ know if the interface was properly configured
via ifup so I made busybox's ifupdown pass the return codes through rather
than dropping them on the floor."
"All the functions in ifupdown.c return 1 on success and 0 on failure
(which happens to the opposite of standard practices but whatever).
So it is important for all these functions to not blindly return 1."
"The problem with blindly returning ret, even if it is != 1, is the
callers expect a 0 or 1 and accumulate the return codes. So a function that
makes 3 calls to execute will have a value of 3 accumulated. That value
of 1 (success) was almost always returned even if 1 of the commands in the
command sequence failed. The attached patch fixes the lack of checking
to verify thar result == expected_reult."

So I'm building a linux from scratch system, using a working script to do this
that the _only_ change to is that gnu sed has been replaced with busybox sed.
And ncurses' install phase hangs. I trace it down, and it's trying to run
gawk. (Insert obligatory doubletake, but this is FSF code we're talking
about, so...)
It turns out gawk shells out to sed, ala "sed -f /tmp/blah file.h". The
/tmp/blah file is basically empty (it contains one character, a newline). So
basically, gawk is using sed as "cat". With gnu sed, it works like cat,
anyway.
With busybox sed, it tests if its command list is empty after parsing the
command line, and if the list is empty it takes the first file argument as a
sed command string, and if that leaves the file list empty it tries to read
the data to operate on from stdin. (Hence the hang, since nothing's coming
in on stdin...)
It _should_ be testing whether there were any instances of -f or -e, not
whether it actually got any commands. Using sed as cat may be kind of
stupid, but it's valid and gawk relies on this behavior.
Here's a patch to fix it, turning a couple of ints into chars in hopes of
saving a bit of the space this adds. Comments?

Dont try and preserve hard links to directories.
The linux kernel doesnt allow hard links to directories, SUS says its
implementation specific.
cramfs gives empty directories and 0 length files the same node it
makies it difficult to distinguish from hard links.

Add two fundamental tests for copying directories

Thats odd. I guess this was cut-n-paste error, but vodz
email address was wrong!
