Thanks for the idea, but unfortunatelly RTEMS_HAS_NETWORKING seems to not
be defined while building libdummy.a even if networking is enabled. In
addition libdummy.a is considered as a "not-install" library so it is not
installed by default.
I'm talking here about latest CVS trunk +
gcc3.4.3/binutils2.15/newlib1.13_Ralf_patch combination.

Thanks,
Karel
