It's an eCos "feature". I thought you maybe could get away with changing
CYGDAT_UITRON_TASK_EXTERNS to use extern char *'s, but I don't think that
would work.
As far as I know, no-one is working on getting this to work with either
uItron variable memory pools or just plain malloc, so feel free to go ahead
and try this. If you do this in a suitably generic way, obviously we could
accept your changes into the main sources.
