    He briefly mentions dietlibc ("not evolving anymore") and ulibc. I think he'd be better off contributing to those projects.

    FWIW I have built a program that needs a tiny initramfs[1] and we've found that dietlibc and musl worked really well in producing very tiny programs. Using glibc is terrible however - it links huge amounts of code into even the smallest program.
