New complex patch for decrease size devel version. Requires previous patch.
Also removed small problems from dutmp and tar applets.
Also includes vodz' last_patch61_2:
Last patch correcting comment for #endif and more integrated
with libbb (very reduce size if used "cat" applet also).
Requires last_patch61 for modutils/config.in.
control turned off" bug, console_setup() was called with a closed file
descriptor, setsid() inconsistancy, and silly string handling bugs. I have
modified his patch to allow the askfirst init actions to have a controlling
terminal.
the busybox development tree. This eliminates the use of recursive make, and
once again allows us to run 'make' in a subdirectory with the expected result.
And things are now much faster too. Greatly improved IMHO...

start-stop-daemon man page:
-b|--background
Typically used with programs that don't detach on their own.
This option will force start-stop-daemon to fork before starting
the process, and force it into the background. WARNING:
start-stop-daemon cannot check the exit status if the process
fails to execute for any reason. This is a last resort, and is
only meant for programs that either make no sense forking on
their own, or where it's not feasible to add the code for it to
do this itself.
This is usefull for applets like watchdog
Very minimal last corrections:
1) busybox.c: fix warining
2) docs/: add applets for list from pwd_grp
3) usage.h: add -n option for route
4) run_parts.c: many todo fix for busybox style
5) addgroup.c: add #ifdef CONFIG_FEATURE_SHADOWPASSWDS, reduce one
perror_msg
6) adduser.c: fix bug "variable i not initialize" and
add #ifdef CONFIG_FEATURE_SHADOWPASSWDS
that into a pid_t, which is unsigned on a number archs. Furthermore,
find_pid_by_name() would _never_ return an error if the intended proces
was "init", but instead would return 1, meaning we would fail to work
on 2.4.x kernels running an initrd...

Kimdon <dwhedon@gordian.com> on october 7th -- the day I was fired from
Lineo. So it seems I totally forgot about this patch until now.
Sorry about that David!
1st makes init smaller, and fixes a bug with AskFirst. Reading from
/dev/null gives EOF.
2nd makes init run the command's in the order of inittab, as in
FIFO instead of LIFO.
