You can not really turn CONFIG_HAVE_IPIPE_HOSTRT on, it is set by the
architecture if it supports it. Supporting hostrt is more a property of
the I-pipe patch than of Xenomai. So, you would have to upgrade to a
more recent I-pipe to have this support.

2.6.2.1 is the latest release, please do not use 2.6.2. 2.6.2.1 is in
the same branch as 2.6.0, so it is completely ABI and API compatible.
Anyway, you do as you wish, but please do not expect support from us for
2.6.0.
