File I/O is not yet available on the synthetic target - at least, not
using the eCos functionality. With the current release sources it is
possible to make some Linux system calls to perform file I/O, for
example by calling cyg_hal_sys_open() and cyg_hal_sys_read(), but
obviously those will have the Linux semantics rather than the eCos
ones.
