Nolibc: A minimal C-library replacement shipped with the kernel
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.

Create rootfs from RockyLinux to use in WSL2?
You can also download the rootfs-es for the containers from https://github.com/rocky-linux/sig-cloud-instance-images (in branches)
What are some alternatives?
infra-devops - Infra and DevOps Utils, like Kickstart to RootFS file builder in docker/podman environment, using AlmaLinux as foundation. This utility can be used in CI/CD pipeline to build docker RootFS files
rootfs - Linux root file system builder in the spirit of buildroot
libc - libc targeted for embedded systems usage. Reduced set of functionality (due to embedded nature). Chosen for portability and quick bringup.
