I hope to get the ACK to become self-hosting (i.e. capable of building itself) for at least some of its supported platforms, and this PR is a very small step in that direction.
The PR adds implementations of
fork, wait, and waitpid functions, for the linux386, linux68k, linuxmips, and linuxppc platforms; and
execl for linux386 (I am not quite sure how to code it correctly for the other linux* targets).
fork, execl, and wait are used by util/cmisc/ed.c.
