[plug] kernel programming

[Shayne O'Neill]

clib stuff etc isnt available in kernel.

You can think of your codes interaction with the kernel like this.

code.c - > c lib headers - > c library - > kernel.

so the problem is , if you stick code.c in the kernel, the c lib headers
are on the wrong side of the c library!

Solution: Not use any includes!!!!! ( I know. its pretty drastic! But
thats life).

Also, I wouldnt expect any c++ to be usefull in kernel code. Its just the
wrong planet altogether :(
