Summary

0001372: On 1.5.0 and 1.5.1, a statically linked busybox doesn't fflush stdout on exit

Description

If busybox is linked statically, it doesn't flush its file handles on exit.

In order to show this, just pipe a command through cat (which causes its output to be page buffered rather than line-buffered).

> ./date
Fri May 25 10:06:49 CEST 2007
> ./date | cat
(nothing)

The attached patch fixes this particular issue, however the general issue remains (other file handles than stdout? other tasks to be performed at exit?)
