Thanks for looking into this for me. I tried the patch, but the
result is the same as before:

- Kernel freezes immediately if xenomai is not a module.

- If xenomai is a module, the nucleus loads, but the first skin module
  freezes the machine.

I will take a closer look next week to see if I can find out at least
where the freeze happens.

Thanks,

Richard
