* libc/string/lib_strndup.c: strndup() should use strnlen(), not
strlen(), to determine the size of the string.
+ * sched/os_bringup.c: Remove support for CONFIG_BUILTIN_APP_START.
+ This is not really a useful feature and creates a violation of the

<b>Other Uses of Built-In Application.</b>
The primary purpose of builtin applications is to support command line execution of applications from NSH.
- However, there are two other uses of builtin applications that should be mentioned.

- <b>Built-In Application Start-Up <code>main()</code> function</b>.
- A builtin application can even be used as the main, start-up entry point into your embedded software.
- When the user defines this option in the NuttX configuration file:
- </p>
-<ul><pre>
-CONFIG_BUILTIN_APP_START=&lt;application name&gt;
-</pre></ul>
- <p>
- that application will be invoked immediately after system starts instead of the default <code>CONFIG_USER_ENTRYPOINT</code>() entry point.
- Note that <code>&lt;application name&gt;</code> must be provided just as it would have been on the NSH command line.
- For example, <code>hello</code> would result in <code>hello_main()</code> being started at power-up.
- </p>
- <p>
- This option might be useful in some develop environments where you use NSH only during the debug phase, but want to eliminate NSH in the final product.
- Setting <code>CONFIG_BUILTIN_APP_START</code> in this way will bypass NSH and execute your application just as if it were entered from the NSH command line.

Using <i>binfs</i>, you can see the available builtin applications by listing the contents of <code>/bin</code> directory.
This gives some superficial Unix compatibility, but does not really add any new functionality.
