+//
+// Author(s):   bartv
+// Date:        2003-03-27
+// Purpose:     provide a __cxa_pure_virtual() function
+// Description: g++ v3.x generates references to a function __cxa_pure_virtual()
+//              whenever the code contains pure virtual functions. This is a
+//              placeholder used while constructing an object, and the function
+//              should never actually get called. There is a default
+//              implementation in libsupc++ but that has dependencies on I/O
+//              and so on, unwanted in a minimal eCos environment. Instead we
+//              want a minimal __cxa_pure_virtual().
