patches to --research available

I've done a bit of hacking on the research branch, and fixed some build
errors and some running errors well, and kluged some more.

My changes are visible at 
http://wiretap.stetson.edu/%7ejjenning/cgi-bin/archzoom.cgi/[email protected]/lnx-bbc--latency--0.1

Particularly, I made fixes to the module-init-tools and changed the
init.d and trivial-net-setup scripts to use the ip command instead of
ifconfig/route. Both of these fixes are needed for the research bbc to
be able to get on the network.

If you wish to avoid being engulfed by error messages saying 'modprobe:
could not find module net_pf_1', you either have to place a
modprobe.conf in $(build_prefix)/staging/singularity/image/etc/ that
says "alias net_pf_1 unix", or change the kernel config to include UNIX
socket support. Similarly with net_pf_14 and af_packet (which you need
for dhcp), and net_pf_10 and ipv6. I've kluged this for the time being.
(The bigger problems are: (a) the kernel config includes some things as
modules which should be in the bzImage, (b) something makes
/etc/modules.conf with only the line 'keep', but should make
/etc/modprobe.conf, with stuff in it.)

i have not gone anywhere near X.
