[ECOS] possible bug in if_fcc ethernet driver?

[agyhoo]

Hi,

In the if_fcc ethernet driver, the fcc_eth_init routine
returns "false" if there is no LINK detected (ie, network
cable is unplugged). However, there is a compile switch
around the return false statement (CYGPKG_REDBOOT).
Therefore, when I run my eCos application, it hangs when
the network cable is unplugged. I think this is because the
network alarm thread and the background thread think the
device status is available and try to access it.

Am I missing something? Can someone tell me why the compile
switch is present?

Thanks.
