[Buildroot] How can i compile bash3.1 with uclibc

[renxuefeng]

i met a problem When i build buildroot with uclibc.
while compiling the bash3.1, it showed some error:

nojobs.o: In function `make_child':
nojobs.c:(.text+0x464): undefined reference to `fork'

I thought this is because the uclibc didnot support the fork function
under the armnommu platform
but how can i using bash under uclibc.
does anybody have some patch for this problem.

You should add the following option to gcc.

CFLAGS+=-Dfork=vfork

Thanks Michael.
I have done using  your method. Now I can compile the bash sucessfully.
but i don't know whether there will be some problem. I know fork and 
vfork have some differences.
