+Fri Aug 28 10:01:24 1998  Jonathan Larmour  <jlarmour@cygnus.co.uk>
+
+	* src/hal_misc.c:
+	Rename __main() to cyg_hal_invoke_constructors() to prevent the
+	implied link with things called, or related to main(). Remove static
+	initialised variable as we can now guarantee it is only called
+	once.
+
+	* src/vectors.S:
+	Instead of calling main(), call cyg_start() which lives in the infra
+	package.
+	Explicitly invoke constructors as it isn't done magically for us
+	any more, now that main() is no longer used.

+
+1998-08-25  Nick Garnett  <nickg@cygnus.co.uk>
+
+	* src/vectors.S:
