Either this is a patch specific to uClinux-dist, or it's been removed
from the recent busybox subversion source. I'm under the impression
that the current stock busybox init applet will not run on uClinux,
due to it using fork.

Does anyone on the busybox mailing list actively test/develop on uClinux?
