Erlang *builds* on Unix, true, but it also builds on Windows and
VxWorks. It's not "written for Unix" specifically.

According to
http://www.erlang.se/publications/Ulf_Wiger.pdf
The AXD 301 runs the "VRTX" operating system, which is described here:

and which AFAICT appears to be called "Nucleus" these days:

which _is_ a RTOS.

I don't think the issue is ignored at all. Customizing your operating
system is why ports/pkgsrc/etc exists.
