Do not bother. I got rid of init altogether.
My init starts with '#!/bin/sh' line now :)

I hate "inline" comments, I really do.

I was wondering, off hand, if some form of "parsing" should be done to
the line in inittab. Perhaps strip out comments, etc. when reading in
the commands. I'd imagine that would save, albeit a minute amount, of
RAM during bootup anyway. Thoughts?

Ok, I tried a build with your .config (with pre10 and with
current CVS) and it compiled up just fine for me.  Perhaps
you have some stale object files or some such in your tree.
Try doing a 'make clean; make oldconfig; make' and see if it
compiles.

Busybox version?  C library?  Kernel version?

$ ./busybox --help 2>&1 | head -n 1
BusyBox v1.00-pre10 (2004.06.02-03:25+0000) multi-call binary

$ ./busybox echo -e "test\ntest2\n"
test
test2

Busybox-1.00-pre10  (a couple day old snapshot also fails)
uClibc-0.9.26
kernel-2.4.26

Checking, yes, I do have CONFIG_FEATURE_FANCY_ECHO set.

Toolchain problem?
I'll re-address after I get Rob's script working
to build a native gcc on uClibc.  I'm still using
the wrapper with gcc-2.95.3 until I get that going.

Thanks for the test,
Steve

Could be dunno.  I just tried with uClibc 0.9.26 and with
glibc and it worked as expected for me...
