The init call for the VxWorks API is missing, which explains the issue.

The issue is most likely with static linking. It seems that the linker
is eliminating the interface setup descriptor in lib/vxworks/init.c from
the final executable; unfortunately this is a library constructor,
connecting the API to the system. We already stumbled upon this issue,
but no fix could be found at this point, with toolchains ignoring
explicit requests to keep such symbols into the name list.

Some (likely terminally ugly) work around may exist, but support for
static linking is very low priority here, so I would advise to stay with
dynamic linking for now.

--enable-lores-clock when configuring is required by tick-based APIs.
