I followed the instructions in the INSTALL directory, replaced stdio.h with the estdio version, recompiled some of the libc routines, replaced several more with estdio versions, and generated a new libc. In fact, I wrote a script, modelled after yminix.sh, to do this. I also had to write a couple of floating point routines to get floating point to work. I plan to send out a set of patches for estdio once I get the last bit of floating point numbers to come out correctly. Hopefully in a couple of days...
