not char because ANSI C allows char to be unsigned if the architecture finds

<h2>RTEMS and NTP</h2>
<p>The RTEMS startup routine waits until a time synchronization packet is
received from an NTP server. This causes the RTEMS intialization to loop
endlessly if there is no NTP server on the network.
This problem has been fixed in the CVS version by allowing the initialization
to time out after a minute or so and to set the IOC time to January 1, 2001.</p>
